SolidSmack: Zombie Killin’ Carts and Call for PhotoWorks Tips

  • Ocell · 1 year ago
    I'm VERY interested to hear any tips anyone has on Photoworks. I've been struggling the past couple weeks to render a model with a transparent housing. My renders either look completely unrealistic (from not enough reflection/refraction bounces) or don't pass 10% completion after left running for days (then canceling the render crashes Solidworks). Frustrating to say the least.

    Use a lot of Indirect Illumination, as well as an environment image. Soft shadows always help.

    Ocell.

    my advice (and considering my position, is maybe a dodgy thing to say) is to give HyperShot a try from Bunkspeed..

    and Josh..

    Cricket Bats are a prerequisite for zombie slaying..

    yeah Al, I'm was wondering if anyone would pick up that obscure reference and start a conversation about :)

    ...bash 'em in the head, that seems to work. Ow.

    maybe we can all discuss the intricacies of that movie, since not too many are interested in sharing photoworks tips :O

    I'm a big fan of that team's movies. If you haven't, check out Spaced, a Brit TV series with some very familiar faces...

    Man, I'm laughing out loud just thinking about some of the scenes from that movie! - how many ways can you kill a zombie?

    "Yeah, but Big Al also says dogs can't look up!"

    I think I liked Hot Fuzz a little bit more - perhaps I just haven't worn out enough DVD copies of it yet..

    but enough with the zombies dude - HELLBOY II is coming..
