Tree Tube scene with mist

Below is a misty version of the tree tube scene.

To make the scene appear misty, an environmental fog render from Maya was used; this was then used as a layer in Photoshop that was placed on top of the finished tree tube scene.

Greyscale was then used to determine how much of the scene was in fog. This was difficult as some of the scene was painted in Photoshop and so did not come through in the same way as the rest of the scene.

If this piece was to be created again, foreground, midground and background layers would be created which would have their own individual opacity, to give the impression of mist or fog.

Creating different weather conditions of the same scene was defiantly a learning experience, in future I will insure the necessary parts and correct layers are created in Photoshop, ready for manipulation.
