This is amazing. Great work. It would be awesome if you posted a short tutorial on the steps that you took to get the effects (blur, render layers, particles, the flames, smoke, etc...) for a single scene. I think everyone would benefit greatly from your skill and knowledge.

Absolutly great work. Keep it up!

HDRI IMAGE

Hey Dude Good job on the rendering! I've also been working on a WWII dog fight for a while. I was just wondering how you made the sky look infinity and where could I get a copy of the HDRI image you used. Thanks!!! Here is a render of my WIP.

Hi Sir-Avalon!

I didn't realise you had this thread here! I have to say, great animation! Love all the camera moves and angles you see the planes from, and the lost in sun type of enviroment really adds to the animation.

I'm in the process of doing something similar actually, still in the modelling stage but hope to be on animation by next week.

If you don't mind I might have some questions when I come to the rendering stage, but I look forward to reading your tutorial when you have it up.

Great site btw and love the reel!

Cheers,

J.

Hello again boys and girls,

so I've wrote down a short walk through tutorial with some examples and tipps.

Tutorials

I hope it will inspire you in the world of rendering. Its not complete at the moment, still missing the section about HDRShop but will add that within the next couple of days.

Any questions, feel free to email me at christian(at)absentdrone.com or send me a PM.

Cheers,
/Chris
