Alien bird final renders update
🕑 Added 2023-07-22 21:23:20 +0000 UTCI've been rendering stuff, pretty good so far but there's a couple problems I need to fix (like some cuts between cameras there's weird motion blur because the characters are snapping into new positions over 1 frame so it's like they moved very fast)
Should just be able to render the last frame and first frame between the cut without motion bur and it should be fine.
Also, there's some pretty horrible clipping with the hair strand here that I didn't notice in the viewport render but it's a lot more obvious in the final render.
Also some weird jiggle on the bird I could have sworn I fixed (by lowering the influence of the jiggle objects to 0 for ~12 frames) but either I didn't or it got messed up some how.
Besides that it's going pretty well so far! I also started doing some tests with the sound, it's extremely wip as well but I'm pretty certain I can use a lot of the stuff I recorded for the bronto/raptor WS animation here (especially since I ended up with a lot more water stream sounds than I needed at the time but I also knew I would probably want to have extra for the future).
I turned off subdivisions for these renders though, they were more for testing how the fluid looks when rendered (especially the bit that's focused closer up, the fluid bake was looking iffy to me but I think turned out pretty alright).
I'm attaching the final renders as they are now (with the clipping, motion blur problem and weird jiggle on that one shot) and the rough sound test(it's not good yet, like I haven't done a ton of work on it but trust me, I'll be striving for nice quality alien fluid hose sounds!)
And I really can not say this enough: thank you for your support and patience... I can't express how grateful I am for it! I was pretty nervous at times thinking this wouldn't turn out great and while there's still some problems that need to be fixed, overall I think this is coming together in an amazing way. And that's all because of you!

Thank you! I've been thinking about doing some streaming on picarto one of these days, maybe some modeling. I actually thought it'd be fun to do something like have people on patreon vote for a character to model and I model it live. Maybe not start to finish but in multiple stream sessions.

It looks outstanding so far! Do you do live streams (sorry for the pun)? As someone who's more of a newb with Blender, I'd love to learn from watching you work.
