oooh thats what the kotkeys for... i forgot i asked about that

thjinks? hotkey for what?

the flood didn't kill the turtle. the lack of food or something did.
the story is "hundreds of turtles must find shelter during endless rain"

not everyone will survive the flood

rendered again with no falling drops, and postpro bloom and rain effect. much better than previous render...

why should i even split the edges?
probably just not smooth enough...

which script in blender should i use to export/import my bunny from another file?

theres power in numbers, during the rain.

new turtle render, still no detailed shell, might do that soon.

enabled cauchy_b on drops, but you can't really tell..
used giant meshlight to light scene.

here's a new one, i like the "cold" feel to it.
the background kind of looks like a painting...

normal-smoothing is enabled...

2 new turtle renders with raindrops. yes.

which one do you think is better?

thats a pretty good idea...

that will be my next render

im going to render it again as soon as im done rendering the turtle.

the turtle skin is a diffuse for now, until i make the scene more detailed.

sss darkened the skin, and the glitched bump map darkened the shell in the previous render.

what do you mean by "bump only?"

here is another render, this time with no bump map or SSS, but i might do SSS if i make the scene more complicated...

weeeeeeeeeeeee

um... that was random.

you can also convert any image to EXR with photoshop, but thats not free.
