Merry Christmas!

,
I'd just like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! I quickly whipped up this render for you, starting with Andrew Price's tutorial on snow. Don't complain, I know there are mistakes! Have a lovely day everyone!

Large update!

,
So I'm going to be doing a large update, coming in a couple of posts; one today, one tomorrow, and so on. So basically, as I'm on Christmas holidays now, I can do more work in Blender. So my first update: A vehicle!! And finished, unlike my Porsche, sorry about that. I made this sleigh for a competition on blenderartists, where the theme was "Santa's sleigh". I decided, heigh ho, Santa needs a new sleigh now and then, surely?! Here is my "modern" take on his sleigh:

Some things I love about it, some things not so much....although as it's my first render using Blender's new renderer, Cycles. Cycles is a very nice ray tracing render engine developed by Brecht van Lommel, a developer of blender. Cycles is a huge step up from the Blender Internal renderer, allowing real time rendering inside the 3D view port! Cycles also makes use of GPU rendering, rather than just CPU, (which it can also do). Until tomorrow!

Kitchen scene!

,
Yes everybody, it's almost Christmas! I break up on the 15th Dec, (tomorrow for me), and I'll be able to do more updates over the Christmas holidays. Anyhow, as I haven't been updating, I thought I'd give you this!

It's nowhere near finished, as you can see, and there are a lot of problems with the render itself. I will post updates to this. I'm not going to put it in the old renders section, as it's not finished yet. Keep an eye open for more updates, there should be more now!
Till next time...

I'm still here!

,
Yes, I haven't died, I do still exist! I'm really busy at the moment, which is why I haven't posted in a while. I'm currently participating in Google Code In (Google is your helper!) and that's taking up all my spare time. However, I will be updating more regularly now! Bye!
