hmmmh?

[Mr_Lamppost]

I am officially distracted 

So have no idea when I will get a chance to work on this again but have it in mind. 

This latest version is definitely looking like it is going somewhere good and I bet it renders quicker that the deep volumetric ones I am aiming for 

[j meyer]

Some infos on the last one:there were three 3D cloud layers with
the following cloud altitude/depth settings.
#1:1e+009/100000
#2:1e+008/1e+008
#3:1e+007/1e+007
rendertime approximately 23 min.
The latest version used slightly different density settings and
rendered approx.54 min.

I'll be back and hope you'll too.

Took a while,but here we go again.
The vector coloring does not work that good with these
thick clouds.See pic #1.The others are done with normal
cloud coloring only and show some more experiments.

  Thanks!

[Mr_Lamppost]

Those are completely mad!!! 

That dense orange "Cloud" looks like a close up photo of a worn out or torn sponge (Synthetic not real), the big open pore ones you use to wash your car.

yea

[j meyer]

  Heehee,yes indeed it's the dreadful space sponge.
The return of the dreadful space sponge will be in theaters
all across the world real soon.Don't miss it!

That thing is absolutely beautiful! Does it animate? Did you post a clip file for it, or is this strictly a private test?

(reminds me of the both the sculpture and the fire/end scene in Devil's Advocate)

I just have the "Deep" version so i can't try to animate it,but
from what i know about animations it should be possible.
No, ,it's not strictly private so if you want some info or a file
just tell me what you need.

Yeh but only if you get the animation module otherwise it will be a pretty dull flic. 

I had also wondered about your settings; I was going to have a stab myself before asking for a clip or tgd but as I am not the first 

By accident I did make polystyrene/Styrofoam clouds a while back but never saved the settings.

[scott8933]

I have the Deep version, and would love to take a shot at animating this if you don't mind sending me a file or clip file. I can see this making for some really spectacular effects!

Mr_L.:but it would be still better than blecch witch project   

styrofoam clouds,sounds interesting,maybe you'll find the
settings again.

I'll post a file later today.

scott8933: i would like to see these animated too and i'll post
the tgd of that one.
