some new stuff

the blob

some new 3D stuff

i’ve got Maxwell and now i’m busy watching tutorials and learning the new stuff.
A first Rendering can be seen here.

new renderings

i rendered that thin complete in the C4d AR.
And as soon as i find some time ip gonna challenge it with the Maxwell renderer.

6 hours for the whole thing.

damm, that tree sucks.

photo vs maxwell vs mentalray

i found a funny thread in the maxwell forum about a guy who built up a cornell box in rel life, took pictures and reproduced it in a Maxwell Rendersetup.
I have every of my Workstations rendering right now so it’s a perfect performance test to rebuild the thing in XSI.
Took me some more time but i came pretty close. And the rendertime is under 2 minutes at 1620x1013px.
1 Pointlicht, FG, GI, and Caustics.

some new 3d stuff

i work on some crappy arch viz and just made a composition with the roughs of the first building.

Renderbreaks in the office 😛

morning

whoa… i was so hard at work that morning..
rendering some stuff for a big machine-building company.
Now my other Mac is rendering some stuff and i work here on the Showreel of our Company.
I hope i can show that asap here.

In other news, i cleande um my whole appartement and my Sister put her furniture in there yesterday.
So it’s really packed there right now. Hope i can move on soon.

zoltan lives on

my ever-wip is going on. I worked on my very first head in XSI/SILO for months now (mostly cause i never find the time 😦 ) and i made the first render yesterday night. LowPoly made in XSI, tweaking, and sculpting/brushing in SILO..then refined teh Mesh (normal map tryouts gone horribly wrong) brought it back to XSI and made a simple Phong-AO-Shader and a Ski for the Light. FG and Mentalray made the rest. IF someone would help me with a good DoF Shader for XSI, i would be really happy. Some final work in Photoshop and here’s a pict.
Wires will come later.

some new caustics

i was stuck in the train again (as you should´ve guessed) and while sit in a dark train (it was in a tunnel)
i tweaked my xsi lightsetups in my testfile with a Glass i made in SILO and i let it render for a while.
After getting that one with the green background, i´ve decidet to try another thing with 2 cubes in tha background who block some of the light and of course creat caustics too.

it were about 5´000´000 caustics, FG and standart Phong shaders.
I will install the MIA shaders asap and start another session.
