3D Artist Terje Hannisdal, who specializes primarily in creating gorgeous CG landscapes, has recently shared the results of a volumetric cloud test, showcasing some incredibly-realistic digital clouds achieved as a result.
According to the creator, the VDB for the project was created with Terragen, Planetside Software's solution for building, rendering, and animating realistic natural environments, and rendered using Blender Cycles. The clouds took 14 minutes and 50 minutes to render in 2K and 4K, respectively, on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12GB GPU.
Additionally, the artist recommended a great tutorial by Samuel Krug, which showcases the workflow extremely similar to that of Terje:
