This is brilliant! :D I love squirrels! :)

May I know the renderer and rendertime?

[ggnastist]

hi vegetadtx,

I used mental ray. It took 20 min per frame if i remember correctly.

GG

[VEGETADTX]

1. I knew it! Mental ray rox forever! ;)

2. 20 MINUTES PER FRAAAME?!?!?! :S

I give up... :( (not literally :D)

The render-time is the only thing that depress me and stops me from starting a serious 3D animated project(animated movie) :(

perhaps by the time I make my own little render farm :) how about you?

[ggnastist]

yeah, Mental Ray rox.

haha.. yeah, render times are ridiculous for things like hair and simulations. I haven't done much serious project myself until now except at work.

[VEGETADTX]

That is nice, if you're working somewhere that means you're pretty skilled...but anyways this video shows it ;)

Well I guess we'll have to wait for some "better days" where some hexa procesors will do the job of 20 PCs but will be affordable enough for average designer.

[ggnastist]

thnx.

haha.. guess it's gonna be a long wait for the "better days" man. NO matter how much processors there are, the 3D seems to take almost the same amount of time to render and simulate.

nice, but, try to move the tail a little bit more up & down.. like an "S" while squirrel's running.

[Danielletheeevee12]

it looks so real!

[Redwysh]

cuty =D

[TheMonthofMayo]

the tail needs a bit more of a flow movement, and the head comes down a bit more, other than that it's good.

[AquaticFerret]

It's a bit still, but it looks awesome!

[RiVvenGuard]

A cute little squirrely! I wanna chase it >_>
