This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Transformer short

well, in simplymaya IRC, one thing lead to another and now I'm making two transformers and having them battle in a short animation. The car is a Mercedes C class, and the jet is going to be an F1-11. I'll post images when I can cause this will quite likely take a long, long, long time. user added image

First up, is what I have currently modelled of the car.

yeah, for the most part. At least this has been a good way to learn how to keep things together. With every mistake, I've found out something I can keep in mind for my next undertaking. user added image

There can not be Good without Evil, so then it must be good to be Evil sometimes.

That's looking really good! I can see a resurgence of interest in Transformers around the corner thanks to that...

Hey Mike! How about a Transformers challenge sometime?

How would you rig this? Would it be all parented geometry or could you somehow build a skeleton?


That'll do donkey... that'll do...
