How often do you see a sophisticated CG render that is just indistinguishable from a photo. Check out the works of this week's winner! If in doubt, you can get the files yourself.

How, then, can you too qualify for this award? Please have in mind that this award is reserved for those that are on par with or that excel top-notch works published by artists and studios. If such work does not appear during a given week, this award is not being given to anyone. So please submit your best work to www.blenderartist.org or to the Member's Gallery of this site, or Contact Us to show where your work is available on the internet. It doesn't have to be a Blender render, internal or Cycles. Any other render engine is fine as long as Blender was used as a part of your workflow.

So, it is with great pleasure that www.BlenderNews.org introduces to you the winner of the Render of the Week Award for the week of September 14, 2020: Joe Siu.

About "Japan Old Alley:"
Based on an alley in Kyoto. Everything except the plants is modeled in Blender 2.83. Large or important objects are textured in substance painter (ground, wooden sign, etc), while others are just some basic PBR textures or Blender’s procedural texture.
