Description
This image came out of some quick 3d concepts made in Vue Infinite..The ecosystem makes working with big cityscapes very quick & easy
buildings & ships modeled in 3dsmax,rendered in Vue6 with heavy post in Photoshop...according to Vue the polycount is in the billions :o
thanks for viewing!

Awesome... when is the next shuttle?
Billions of polys! OMFG! That's incredible... what sort of system are you running that on? I not even sure if Bryce can handle that kinda poly count lol... and it's usually pretty good at that sort of thing?? :D Wicked, wicked image!!
Sweet! :o)
Billions!!! You must be runnin some hign octane!! You Da Man Stone!!! AWESOME SCI-FI!!!
Beautiful image !!!
This is fantastic
Stunning!
what sort of Cray supercomputer are you doing these renders on?
WOW, Impressive is to Small a Word for this Incredible Creation!!! 10+++
Oh yeah - I have been running Vue 6 Infinite for roughly a year now...what they mean by poly counts in the billions is through "instances" which is changeable and viewable within the material handler and functions. How an "instance" works is that far from the camera the poly's will be displayed (for instance trees) as four poly's/image planes...even farther this will appear as a single "billboard" (made to always face the camera regardless of position) which is a simple image plane with an alpha image on it. You can never get "close" to see this normally because the viewing resolution will change as the camera moves ;-) This way Vue can "handle" images with billions upon billions of poly's - now if these were "actual" poly's the system would more than likely crash - you can see this by importing a single object with 300,000 or more poly's and watch it slow down a LOT LOL. The ecosystem instances work very very well though in Vue due to the constant change of the "resolution" no matter what the camera movement...this way complex scenes can be developed without multiple layered rendering and compositing ;-) I have personally rendered scenes with "poly's" way up in the billions lol - love it! Awesome scene as usual my friend - :D 5+++
I refuse to write Awes*** but will write Awe-Inspiring!
Fantastic scene. The huge ship reminds me a little of the one in "Independence Day". Professional work.
Very cook!!!
Wonderful work. Turan
Awesome artwork, this is eye candy at its finest. Sweet!!
Awe-inspiring image...a truly amazing sense of scale!!
Holy smokes man,no matter what you do..it is always inspiring.fine, fine work(;
Very nice :D Would kill my computer like a fly on the wall...hehe
Very dramatic looking sci fi scene, excellent work.
breathtaking vista!
Great concept work. Its a rare talent to have both executable conceptions skills.
Incredible! This dramatic scifi view is absolutely beyond words and compliments. Remember me the best moments of Kubrick "2001" film or "Close encounter..." from Spielberg. Great!
Fantastic.....cant find words.
Are you sure you don't makes sets for movies???? I am spellbound!
Indelibly superb!
Holy crap! This is jaw-dropping amazing!
Very nice!!!!

Good to see you working in the Vue environment; great render here!
Wonderful scene! Are these the greeble city blocks?
