Hi Dimi,

cant wait to see what youre going to conjure with this post effect… :drool:
Is Hypervoxel a plugin for Lightwave or just a particel system in the main prog?

#1764

wow hypervoxel is cool , but why don’t u use fluid effects in maya??

#1765

excellent models, but the legs (mainly of the greater) are not very feminine?

Good luck!

@ theuni …Hypervoxel is part of LW…not and extra plugin :slight_smile:

@ monsitj …U are right i could go with FLUIDS in Maya…but i own a license of Maya Complete and not Unlimited :argh: …that’s the main reason…i have Unlimited only at the studio i work for and these days i am on holidays vacation…and even when i am there i don’t have much time to work on my stuff… :sad: …so basically all the explosions and particle effects i will have in my final will be Maya Software rendered particle systems, Hypervoxels from LW and Real time particle effects from a program we have at wotk called Illusion :slight_smile: (…this one is a real time saver :bounce: )

@ lotaH …maybe they look a bit 'cuase of the fluid muscle lines…but i am against making a beast leg design just becuase it has a beast face…i don’t think that there is a strict rule for this… :slight_smile: hahahahahah ( i should be a Lawyer…hahahah)…but i am saving i think…the situation in texturing of those …“cute” legs… :smiley:

>…the Grana Bumba Tank…textured…i don’t think i will take more time with it 'cuase it’s not going to be that big in final image …it 'll be more a background element i think…

hope u like it

C&C are always welcomed.

#1771

And this year’s Oscar for CG Artistry goes to Dimitris Liatsos, for the CG Feature Film “The Fall of Kaheldar”. :bowdown:

I don’t know what your outcome will be for this contest, but you damn sure have produced an award winning piece of CG artwork.

:thumbsup:

Nice vehicle man. Nice texturing. Only thing missing the texture for the huge tires…
looking good. i thing you’ll end up rendering peaces and putting them back together in photoshop, cos i don’t think even 4 gigs of RAM will get even a couple of those babies with the cool fighters you made and the sparrow and stuff…

anyways good work, keep it up waiting to see it finished

wish i had more time for the GSO

bye for a sec

#1773

and holding a beer please :bounce:

#1774

Hahaha …wheels are left like that 'cuase nothing of their texture is visible where the tank will be except coloring of tires…and …actually my Dual G5 (with 3 GIGS ram) handles ALL the models together for render in the scene in 3000 x 4000 pixels Mental Ray render…just tested… :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: …weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :bounce:

@ piggy …with beer …ok!!!

@ jfelrod1960, niki, Denman …thanks guys…really thanks! :bounce:

#1775

i think its too detailed even if its in the background :eek:! WOW brilliant tank ! i like it :bounce:

#1776

it has all ready details.:applause:

#1777

As usual ----> OMG :eek::eek::eek:!!! Just amazing, no words on my mouth now… –Shocked–

#1778

…first layer of explosion on Bridge…very simple setup…but it will do the trick i think…the “starts” of tails are not yet rendered nad also there will be 2 more layers in inner explosion just to give richer texture and volume to the effect…

C&C are welcomed.

#1779

Thank u guys for all the good words…really motivating :bounce:

#1780

That will do the trick, I think so too. Great update, keep it up
