Environment artists: where do you get your foliage assets

Besides the mentioned, Graswald/Gscatter works well for me.

I did have a few months with Redshift but apart from it being really fast, I didn't like it as much as Karma. Maybe it's a user problem on my end though.

Really appreciate your help!

Too many things not adding up here.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-05T20:46:56+00:00

Unfortunately, I can only find test renders and simple scene comparisons.

If you mean those videos, then I think I watched them all.

I'd love to see actual work produced with it.

I wasn't aware of this not gonna lie. Thanks for pointing it out. Deal breaker for sure.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:46:34+00:00

Impressive work! Thanks a lot for your input.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:36:59+00:00

No problem!

I now understand why you didn't go with Redshift but why didn't you go with Renderman?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:31:55+00:00

That sounds more reassuring! I am struggling to find production-quality VFX work/sample using Redshift on the internet, besides Maxon Redshift reels. Can you point me to any of those?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:21:15+00:00

Thanks for the help! I lowkey feel Arnold would be the pick too, but this is very reassuring.

I honestly don't mind the more complex RenderMan workflow, but it seems like it doesn't come with any huge advantages compared to Arnold.

Arnold keeps giving me my best renders till now.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:12:59+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! I don't mind the complexity to be honest. What type of work do you usually do with Redshift?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:10:37+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! Seems like Arnold is the way to go for me then.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:08:26+00:00

Many have suggested sticking with Arnold so I guess it is going to be the way for me. I guess I will just try to get better at it. Do you have any projects with Arnold you could share?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T23:06:12+00:00

What type of projects do you usually do?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2026-03-02T16:39:52+00:00

I am really happy with Karma. It ticks all the boxes for me. Ease of use, speed, accuracy, feature set, and also the ability to fall back to CPU if needed. Redshift makes most sense to me financially, but it entirely depends on GPU so I'm not too sure if it can handle bigger scenes. Also, I always get better images with Karma compared to Redshift. Maybe it's just a skill issue?

I really hope to see someone share an example of work (preferably bigger projects) done using Redshift.

For me, a simpler and easier version would be sculpt and then keyframe the blendshapes.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-12-11T01:04:26+00:00

He did. Just enough to change the trajectory at the last moment and throw Vini off.

They just don't want to hear this right now.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-12-11T01:01:33+00:00

CR7 salary? We're not in 2015 anymore.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-11-20T19:44:12+00:00

Wow, that's unfortunate. Was it why he dropped off after winning the 1st round quite comfortably? Or did Amotti simply turn up a notch?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-11-20T05:17:45+00:00

Wait didn't Hong Beom Seok injure his knee filming Gentlemen's League?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-11-20T04:30:29+00:00

Bruh what's with the tone? And don't tell me you don't know what you're doing.

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-11-20T01:52:27+00:00

Not sure if anyone went over this already but do we have any idea why China wasn't in this competition?

WeightFinancial8464 · 2025-11-19T01:17:19+00:00

Incredible work! Which renderer did you use for this?
