  • Why did you use the scanline render engine? Mental Ray with Final Gather is muuuch better!!

  • When learning CG you should start with the basic and do things the hard way in order to build an understanding on why you do certain things. Once you have this basic foundation then you can use whatever tools you want to make it better. Mental Ray, VRay, PRman etc.. Understanding the basic tools will make you appreciate the more advanced ones far greater and will allow them to speed up your work-flow rather than hinder its progress...

  • @utterchaotic I guess that may be true. But why on earth would you use bezier-curved keyframes for animation? I know so because your water comes slowly to full speed and then stops at the end. Linear keyframes don't have this problem...

  • @QUATR00 I'm a shading/lighting guy and when I made this I didn't even know what the graph editor was.  Definitely not an animator : /.

  • Now I want to make Jello

  • for only $6,000

  • @b112938 its a rendering plugin

  • what is that mental ray everyone is talking about?

  • @utterchaotic I can respect that too. I started on the regular maya software rendering, before I moved up to mental ray and prior to that had several years of Blender under my belt, so what you say does make sense, although I also quickly moved up to mental ray from regular software rendering. There is so much amazing stuff to learn about Mental Ray.

  • I have mixed feelings about this. I looked closely and the water is not moving naturally. I would have used Mental Ray rather than scanline personally. I think your picture would have turned out a lot nicer. In terms of realism for the water, it could have been so much more real. Do you have any newer updated water simulations?

  • i feel like the water has no real waves. its just moving up and down. waves move from a to b.
