Noel-3D - Photorealistic nature scene in Blender 3.0

Noel-3D has recently shared, with the ArchViz community, a step-by-step tutorial on how to create a Photorealistic Nature Scene from scratch using Blender 3.0 & Cycles.

Some of the assets Noel-3D used in this tutorial are:

• Botaniq-trees, an ever-expanding library of optimized real 3D plants.
• Easy HDRI, Blender Addon used for HDRI map settings in Blender.
• PolyHaven HDRI, a rocky forest HDRI.
• Ambientcg, PBR paving stones material for the walkway.
• Ivy Generator, for blender 3.0 by Baga.
• Some free stuff from Forest_house.

This tutorial starts with a simple introduction, then building the walkway, afterward starting with the materials and texturing, scattering the Ivy, and finally lighting and rendering the scene.
