Dan'Os Dino Renderings

Whew...sorry I just got back from AK.

You know it depends on a lot of different things. Number of subjects is big. Getting the textures just right, background, lighting, poses and camera angle. But 3-6 hrs is the low end 12-24hrs on the high end.

I like to streamline the processes as much as possible too. Like I made a macro/script that will automatically enhance and create the frame. Something that would normally take 5-10 minutes now takes 10-15 seconds. I try to save poses and textures as much as I can too. So once I have a 3d scene saved and I need to tweek it it usually does not take too long. And my machines are tuned to high end 3d rendering. A rendering even at over 10,000 pixels across takes minutes (usually, depending on elements....subjects, lights reflective surfaces and transparencies....) But I have done scenes with literally millions of polygons and many transparent objects that took hours. The longest actual render time I think must have been over a day just for the computer to render out. But that was a while ago, on an older system.

Thanks so much. This next one...I'm gonna try for something a bit more, carnal?

As long as it's not X-rated, it should be fine :D

Impressive! Even more so when you click and zoom in to see all the fine details that go into making each one of your pics. Like skin textures and markings for example, and even their eyes and razor sharp teeth. Not forgetting the different colourings you use.... very good indeed :tu:

I have to feel for that poor kid though, not a good way to go.

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah sorry, that was a bit dark. There were tons of these smaller 15-30' theropod species that moved like giant, wicked birds with the drive of intelligent, hungry crocs. They really did represent a pinnacle, of sorts, in land predator evolution IMO.
