Over the past couple of weeks I’ve been selecting these 3D renders from all over the internet. I personally think this turned out to be quite a nice selection. If you think so too, please digg this!
Scene was modeled in 3D studio MAX 08. Also MudBox was used to create a map for Hamilton’s race suit. The entire scene was rendered in VRay and finally, Photoshop was used for texturing and some touch ups.
A stunning render of a Ford Mustang. Awesome detail!
This Land Rover Defender was made for a client. Originally it was a lowPoly 3D model. Gradually, the rough parts were replaced and more and more details were added to make this final render.
This shark was modelled with ´Edit Poly´ in 3ds Max. It started of as a simple box and was sculpt and shaped using book illustrations as aguide.
The bumblebee character was designed in Zbrush and a first composition was rendered in 3D Studio Max. Fur was rendered seperately and the entire image was retouched in photoshop.
Ocular Production is a 3D visualisation firm specialised in creating photorealistic 3D renders of architectural marvels.
A 3D render of how Vadim Valiullin sees the future of painting. Note the screen in the top right.
A unique piece made by Peter Hofman in Cinema 4D.
One of the beautiful still life renders of Herner Quintero.
A very realistic render of an old Jeep Wrangler model. This image was modelled in 3DS Max and rendered using Mental Ray.
A terribly realistic render done by the talented Benjamin Brosdau. He used 3dS max 7 and the alpha version of next limit`s maxwell render. Render times were about 3 to 4 hours to get the special flash light-photography style. Noise reduction was done with Neat image software.
And another by Benjamin Brosdau.
A stunning render of a bathroom done by Francesco Legrenzi in 3DS Max, Vray and retouched in Photoshop.
A camera design for competition. This awesome image was rendered using 3ds Max 2009 and finalized with Photoshop CS.
Texturing this image was the hardest part. It was modelled in 3DS Max and rendered in Vray.
Modeling of this fantatic looking parot was done in Maya, while rendering was done in MentalRay. A HDRI Probe and two lights were used for the lighting.
The following three images are by the extremely talented Axel Ritter from Germany. He uses mainly Cinema 4D and these images just keep amazing me.
Eventhough this image, by Bulgarov, isn’t textured yet it already looks amazing. This is a ZBrush shot.
Neil MacCormack works mainly in Lightroom LightWave and has rendered the next two futuristic images. Enjoy!
It’s so difficult to get humans right, but Stephen Molyneaux sure managed to make Bernadette here as realistic as imaginable. This isn’t a photograph, but a render in 3DS Max and Zbrush.
There are more angles of this crash on Den Fox’s site.

Great selection. Thanks for this!
Awesome!!!
I can’t believe how much effort has been put in the detail of several of these renders.
Nice posting.
Must haven taken some time to get this together!
Very COOL indeed!
Great collection. Thanks for taking the time to put them together! There a quite a few that I hadn’t seen before.
Keep it up!
It’s nice to have it in an “GOLD” collection
You can make it 100’s. It sounds with more respect
Great selection. Thank you!!!!!!!!!
Great collection. Thank you!!!!!!!!!
Awesome!! I love the organic green looking ones by Axel Ritter..
I love them all!
Thanks for this. Good picks.
Seen some but the mayority are new to me.
Wow,
Thanks all for the support. Nice to see my time well spent. For my just-starting blog visitor numbers have been overwhelming. Mainly thanks to being features on the main pages of:
http://www.cgsociety.org/
http://www.cgarchitect.com/
http://www.3dvf.com
http://www.creativetools.se/
This will certainly motivate me to keep posting.
Also, any suggestions of impressive 3D art are welcome. I may just expand this list.
Thanks again,
Zhoog
Great, amazing images. Thank you for taking the time to post this. By the way, it should be 50 great “renderings” and not “renders.” Renders is a verb.
Does it bother you that you havn’t asked any of the artists permission to do this? I agree that this could drive more traffic to them but most artists will not say that they are happy about their art be taken and posted without their knowledge.
Freddie, thanks for your concern and I too was weary of doing this for that reason.
I just hope that by linking to the artists this will be okay. I do follow my stats and whenever I notice a visitor from a site linked here I check to whether they are fine with their inclusion in this list.
Some artist have discovered their art being posted here and have blogged about it themselves: http://siquier.blogspot.com/, http://bearfootfilms.com/, http://gcallahan.com/
Whenever an artist feels offended by this, please let me know and I will immediately remove their art from the list, while maintaining a text link.
Yes, I think that to be in a list of the “best whatever” cannot bother anybody, anyway that´s ok for me.
Yes Ive seen the majority of these on cg talk, I specially like Marek Denko’s work. The 3rd and forth images from the bottom. Has to be my favourite cg artist. Nice collection thanks.
Great work!
Bernadette looks so real…
Thanks for this post

“Neil MacCormack works mainly in Lightroom…”
Perhaps you meant LightWave?
How about some stunning images that were rendered with a very well known free software?
