Morning ...now in 3d stereo

[Hannes]

...and here's an animated gif (makes a little bit nervous, I know...)

Wow ! Nice. The stereo ones showed me that i didn't quite get what was in the 2D image before.
It is not easy on the eyes but , to have depth is good . Thanks  

Edit : Did you use any other program for this , Hannes?

[Hannes]

Hi Kadri,
yes, it's not that easy to get used to the crosseyed viewing, but after some practising it works quite nicely.

I used only this small program here:
http://stereo.jpn.org/eng/stphmkr/index.html
to create the animated gif.
For the crosseyed view image I only used photoshop to put the two images next to each other.

Btw I'm really a fan of this crosseyed image stuff. My wife calls me Clarence for quite some time now

Hannes , you brought back many memories . I used to live from 1967 to 1975 in Deutschland .
We are nearly equal in age ; Daktari , Flipper , Skippy , Time tunnel , Ufo , Avengers , Tarzan , Lassie and what not ...!
But one thing that i can not stand now are films and series (not in reality of course) with child's and animals .
I think i have seen too much of them

...those were the days!!

Beautiful render! The post work really does bring out a lot in the final result. As you say, some may not see this as "pure", but in reality 99% of the great CG work you see out there relies heavily on good post work, especially color grading, tone mapping, etc.

great work Hannes!

Hannes,

The gif flipping is cool. I can't get any results crossing my eyes other than vertigo.

A small animation just moving the camera forward and a small degree of rotation would be outstanding.  I'm sure that would tie-up your computer for sometime.

[Hannes]

Thank you all!!
Marc, I know it takes some time to learn this crosseyed viewing, but when you got it, it's really great. I think there are some good instructions around.
Unfortunately I don't have the animation module (yet), so my computer had a lucky escape!

Technically your gif is an animation Hannes
You can make it a little longer with a couple of frames more ...no "lucky escape!"

The 3D is pretty awesome.. even better than the original image. Well done. 

[Hannes]

Here's a 3d update. I rendered another one with "the eyes" less far apart. I thought the effect was a little bit too extreme. It's not that much of a difference, but i like it more.

Beautiful work! Wonderful light!
