Hey Francesco, try https://hdrihaven.com/ for HDRIs. It has a bunch of free ones too.
p.s. I like your planet render! 🙂 It’s a bit too high-contrast in my opinion, and the star background could more like this: https://pixabay.com/en/starry-sky-star-galaxies-andromeda-1654074/

Cheers!

Hi, Gleb.
I’m Francesco, i’m only 13, and i’m Italian, i love 3d graphic, so i decided to learn something cool like Blender when i was 10, first i started with some italian tutorials but then, i find your Youtube Channel and i decided to look some of your tutorial. You are great. :-()
Can you tell me some feedback about the image in the link below ?
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByQ-aD7q0HlZSDJlUWNodjNsMUE
(I had to use a google-drive’s link becouse the image is bigger than 5 MB, and i didn’t want to make smaller resolution)
What do you think of the HDR ?
I find only this, you can tell me some great site to find good HDR ? 🙁
If you can tell me some tricks, some way to improve the rendering, do this, i need of advice to find new ispirations,
Keep it up, keep to do more tutorial, i like them very much.

Excuse me for any error, as i said: I’am an italian boy.
Thank you in advance 😉

Hey Gleb, what camera are you using when recording your introductions and promos? Sorry if it has been asked before, but I can’t find a way to search this thread.

hi Gleb…I have a question for you. Im a blender user and I like your Work especially renderings.. my question is..what hardware (workstation) are you using to do some animation?, bcoz I know people always say hardware doesn’t matter… but for Cycles and high details models require good hardware..

Tomas, thank for the question! if I understood your question correctly, you want to merge or link 150mb house into suburb scene – and do it efficiently. It depends on how large your house will be in the scene. You can even make lowpoly model of the house – and bake textures and normal map. Or just decimate your model.

Did I understand you correctly?

Hi, Gleb. I’m wondering if it’s worth to deal with laberintic tree of nodes to produce an specific material (I.E. wood) while you could find image textures and tweaking some nodes, to get the same, or similar, result. Appreciate your comment.
