Title: Dinosaurs-The musical
Post by: Hannes on December 20, 2020, 12:30:07 PM
Initially this was planned as a scary scene with hunting dinos, but in the end it looks like these guys are really enjoying themselves. Like if they were all singing "Hooray, that asteroid has missed the earth!" or something like that.

The terrain is again made from Andy Welder's Hoodoo scene, and the dinos are from Sketchfab.

A wonderful render, the image is sharp and dynamic. Did you repose the dino's? Spectacular cliffwork! I'm still trying to wrap my head around dinosaurs frolicking to music while running from an even bigger dino shopping for dinner. ;D What a hoot!

Thanks a lot, Zaxxon! I only reposed the head and the neck of the large dino in the background a bit.

Yep. Sure is. I puleld it up and said "Look, Jayce! Dinosaurs!" and he just gets up and starts his stomping dance. Haha.

Great work. I had to save it to Jayce's dinosaur's album. Quality is great on these assets, can you share the spino link?

Great again Hannes!

you may think what you want about what they say or sing... I personally would keep hidden somewhere ;D
Doesn't the one in the front spit something like acid?

So great! :D  If you would really convey the feeling of a disco, you'd have to find an old gramophone sitting in the sand somewhere. Or a ghettoblaster.

I don't know, maybe he does...

"up (one's) sleeve

Of a plan or advantage, kept in secret so it can be utilized if and when it is required."

Well, I know, what THAT means. :) 



I was just pretending not to know, which silly things you were expecting me to have in mind.
(Does that sentence make sense?)

I confess, that I am very open for silly ideas. ;)

(That gramophone took more than seven hours to render as a crop!!!!!)

And yes, that sentence makes sense :)

Whoa. I imagine this was PT? Some angles make the ground render really slow I notice. Like that simple Arrakis scene with nothing but sand and a worm, the shadowed sand took the longest at like 8 hours.

Yes, PT. Unexpectedly long, but nevertheless a crucial ingredient for this image. ;D ;D ;D

Worth every second :)

I can almost hear them singing the old Beatle songs, like Yellow Submarine, Love You Yeah Yeah Yeah...

Great job!

Did you do the materials in TG? I imagine the time was all that bounce involved.
Title: Re: Dinosaurs-The musical
Post by: Hannes on December 23, 2020, 04:47:24 PM
Yep.
If I load the model in a fresh scene, it renders in a few minutes.
Title: Re: Dinosaurs-The musical
Post by: WAS on December 23, 2020, 06:13:57 PM
Materials look fanstastic fyi. My son still loves it too. Lol

Yeah I imagine a flat surface without any microdisp would be quickker but any calculation of geometry with all the bounce can start multiplying things.
Title: Re: Dinosaurs-The musical
Post by: Dune on December 24, 2020, 02:34:29 AM
Yes, especially from complicated rocks. Luckily you didn't have a waterfall as well, or it would still be rendering :P

The Carnotaurus sings bass and Spinosaurus is dino-Aretha  ;D all joking aside those are some really cool models.

I really like the coloring and finish result you brought to this field. It makes me want to try Andy Welder's Hoodoo scene.

Thanks Pierre, try it!!
