Good luck to you, but my frenzied advice to you is to trim it down to something manageable.

Mr Roberto Ortiz, i think one more week will be cool, i have my Video almost done, but for todays deadline i cant add some particle Fxs like smoke, i only have the explotions, and some render glitches…

with one more week i can work to fix the glitches and add more particles Fxs. And maybe some music and sound Fx.


#13

Well, I try it. :shrug:

Today it was impossible for me to finish the challenge… Renders Glitches, Maya’s “Fatal Error” when I try to render the Hw Particle’s Fx"…:sad:

Really good, it’s amazing you did all this in a month, and also completed all the shots. I have my issues about weigth, speed and inertia not being well represented but all in all it’s a very nice practice for you. I would advise though for next competitions to focus your work in getting the most of a single shot. Keep it up Bro:thumbsup:


#20

Thanks, it was hard. There are a total of 29 Shots…

Yes you are right, I’m not happy with the Final Animation… maybe I’ll do some Special Edition and fix that issues :smiley:

Yes you are totally right, i work a lot in this challenge… but its better get only one GREAT shot than 29 simple shots.

I feel good because I finish it (in the additional week deadline), but I could do a better job.
