  1. My main machine (which is a few years old now) was built by AVA Direct and it's been excellent. I had a custom laptop made by Digital Storm, that is a good machine, but has crazy fan noise and seems more Gamer oriented. I looked long and hard at Puget Systems too when I built the tower and I think I would try them for the next one., though nothing against AVA.
  2. Nice! Thank you - good read there. Gonna dig into this a bit more - I want to make this work for Cinema and Corona or Redshift. I knew it wasn't new, but was lacking the correct verbage to track it down. Thanks Mike A - very useful!!
  3. Saw this for Max and Vray - any idea how to achieve this kind of thing in Cinema? I could use this in so many different ways. TL:DR Add a flat plane to building interiors and it alters based on viewing angle. Here's the promo:
  4. Thom Yorke portrait experiment with Mid journey. Here's a few highlights, more on my Instagram.
  5. First steps with Mid journey AI. All generated by the algorithm, no post work by me - straight from the computer. Super fun.
  6. I'm not the guy for the job, but I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you. I'm a huge fan of Poliigon and the material loading plug in is gold. You've saved me countless hours and dollars on my work. Thanks and good luck in the job hunt.
  7. Corona v08 included access to Chaos Cosmos which is a pretty nice set of assets that you can load into your scene with one click. I imagine this is the bigger goal of the Maxon asset browser, but the Chaos ones are such better quality. Here's a few close up tests of some accessories.
  8. Reshoot of this old model which was how this sketchbook started. Base modeled in Vectorworks and detailed in Cinema.
  9. One more with the Raptor - this time with a full CG environment.
  10. The S key is the big one for me: being able to find things in complicated scenes either in viewport or in the object manager makes the whole thing so much better.
  11. Sorting through Shadowcatcher workflow with Backplates in Corona. Have to do a bunch of this for an upcoming project, so trying to get more comfortable with it. I get some weird coloring/refraction/reflection on the glass, so trying to troubleshoot that.
  12. I think these look great and are a good transition from 2d to 3d. The only thing that stands out to me is the bottom/underside of Deedee's foot - can't tell what's going on there with the SSS. But that's a minor note - great work as usual! e.
  13. Nice! Have you done any architecture tests yet?
  14. One more with textures all from The Pixel Labs Corona texture pack.
  15. Trying the new DECAL feature in Corona - this thing is amazing. So simple to use and such a nice way to add decals or aging/distressing to objects without complicated material or UV setups. Here is the before and after.
  16. One more with textures all from The Pixel Labs Corona texture pack.
  17. New texture pack for Corona from The Pixel Lab. Picked it up to support Joren - nice stuff. Everything in here is from the pack except the painting and the book.
  18. Igor, you forgot to add the ZEN node. 😁 Looks so cool though.
  19. I like the vent, but it's massive. What if it was only an inch or two wide. Keep going - get all the details and furniture in there and then you can finesse. Make large broad strokes and then refine. I think people (myself included) get too caught up in micro details without laying in the bigger picture first. Imagine you are staging the house - bring everything in and then start placing it. The whole vibe will change when you get chairs around that table.
  20. Thank you. Poliigon for the win on the tiles.
  21. Simple practice scene. Working on a cooking show set, so buying some new assets.
