how to make this fireplace

[chow choppe]

hi all

 

please help me with this. extremely urgent for me

Have to deliver today. Using 3dsmax and vray 1.5rc3

i am trying to make a fireplace using riverstone/ rockstone

The problem is the client sent me an image how he wants the fireplace to look like. But the map is too low in size and therefore tiling happenning very badly. The client wants the stone to be 2/3 of what it is in the picture.

Also when i am mpping the image the edges are coming to be straight but id u look in th image the edgesare as per the shape of the stone and there is dark shadows where each stone is joing the other. I tried photoshopping it but its not coming nice

 

see the image the client wants the fireplace to look like

 

 

Please help me.

now I see the image.

try modeling rocks one per one. Scale un uniformly. is reactor an option? fill a box with stones?

you have a few options -

 

1) render what you have and post process in photo shop

2) find or make yourself a stone texture that tiles better and has more size and variance to it. very easy. then use that texture in conjunction with photoshop again.

3) use this new texture with vray displacement

4) model the stones

 

just a few suggestions
