Since yesterday we had a huge thunderstorm here in Estonia. I got a bright idea to do another rainy render.
Here it is. Not my best one. But a great idea nevertheless.
Good timing, I have been trying to figure out the best way to do exactly this the last few days. I figured there was some particle effect that could be generated in blender or the use of some bump map. Looking over this shot, am I correct in guessing its a bump map applied? The rain the scene looks to be a PS blend layer correct? I really like the displacement ( subtle surface wave) in the puddle.
Was it a 'Y projected' water bump map? Amazing work btw!
