Hi guys,
I know, I am entering very late this contest.
I don't know if I can finish this work, but is better to participate than watch.
After days of scratching my head about which mith or legend should I depict,
I finally stopped over the legend of Jericho, a city of which walls collapsed
under the fearsome sound of horns used by Joshua's army.
This is some work in progress, 3D pre-visualization will follow soon.
Good luck to all of you!

My idea is to show this airship, train (or tube, like in the drawings of Albert Robida) terminal being attacked and destroyed by an army using great steam powered horns, of which sound will shatter the building, collapsing it in a great cloud of dust and debris.

Machine exhaust pipes test. Vray & FumeFx. Pure GI lighting (the exhaust flames are the only objects lighting the scene). Not usable, because of the flicker, but nice, anyway.

Various test that I have done, using various render engines, materials and settings. After many many hours of tests (and having in mind the deathline AND the rendertimes), I decided to go for a non-photorelistic look for my video, a cartoon style, more like a comic book look.

Since Hindenburg, the airships had fall into obsolescence. Too bad, the skies would have been much much interesting...

Heloo guys. After centennial battles that lasted for thirty years, I think I have finished the movie. Which I will upload. Now. I still don't understand if its mandatory to upload a 30 seconds version of the movie, a "making of" of the movie and finally the full lenght movie, which I don't have (I mean the first two parts). But now I'm to tired to even lay down on the floor without anchoring myself, so I will upload my movie and hope for the best. God speed to everybody!
