ISO a Sinkhole or broken earth product

Geminii23 · May 2021

I'm trying to create an image of a sinkhole opening up in the ground. I would prefer to do this all in DS instead of diving into Photoshop for postwork to achieve. Does anyone know if there is some kind of environment options like a cave opening? Crumlbed ground? Earthquake perhaps?

Cheers!

These may work for some angles or be used for kitbashing:

This island seems to have something akin to a sinkhole:

It all depends on what type of sinkhole exactly are you looking for.

I was reading about this product the other day... https://www.daz3d.com/gescon-constructive-solid-geometry-for-daz-studio

If you can't eventually find something that fills your need and you don't really do modeling, you could use the tools in the above plugin to cut a hole in a large thin cube... the mesh has to be closed for the plugin to work, so that's why it can't be a plane, so you need to size/flatten an appropriately sized cube to the dimensions that works best, before you cut a hole through it using the plugin.

Please note: I don't own the product, but it sounds like it would work.

Here is a thread about the product... https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/492561/released-gescon-csg-plugin-for-daz-studio-commercial/p1
