    I want to buy Ocatane but I still need 46€.
    Are you using blender for modeling? Because if you use any industry modeling app, you got no excuse for not having 50euros.

    Also since octane is unbiased, it's not very good for animation because each frame takes different amount to render or has different noise levels. Very annoying. Sure in biased times frame by frame vary, but I know that when it's done, the noise will be the same as the last frame had.

    Decided to start modeling again after doing nothing productive for a month.

    Oh and this is (still) my first model. Yeah I worked on it for about a week and then just dropped it.

    The top thingy it has on the front doesn't look appealing. Also for the love of god fix smoothing errors. Even if it's a wip, I hate seeing these.

    I use Blender and LuxRender at the moment.
    Octane is fast. I think it is very good for animation.

    explain octane to me please? besides render times, how different would be from vray?
    I've never tried Vray so I wouldn't know. Anyway Octane is a rendered that works with CUDA capable GPUs instead of the CPU, main points being:
    - real-time preview of physically correct un-biased light, specular, diffuse and glossy materials
    - progressive rendering, just don't rotate the camera or modify materials and it'll get less noisy over the next few minutes automatically. (you can however, change the exposure, gamma and contrast without restarting it again)

    The only limitation is your GPU memory, but the scenes I posted only consumed 60MB/1000MB and they took just several minutes to render each, even with quite a steep DoF in the other render. The fact I don't have to always guesstimate my materials and rape the render button to see if it was right in a hit-and-miss style is a big thing IMO, Octane is just ridiculously practical in comparison to most renderers. Then again I'm quite crap at modeling and texturing and lights so I need crutches like real-time preview, the more proficient ones here might only thing Octane is "neat" but it's almost vital to me by now

    Edited:

    That's very true, although you can render animations with Octane it's not really time-efficient anymore because you p. much want to get rid of a huge amount of the noise. For still shots which is my intention mostly it's plain awesome though.

    Shame vray doesn't support gpu rendering. Sure the RT does, but it's just RT. I want final vray to use gpu power too.

    Would be awesome to render with Vray using CPU and GPU (no, it's not RT).

    Are you saying all graffiti artists aren't artists or just the ones that draw cocks or write their name on buildings?

    Fuck no, I hate tags, but still, that isn't my point, no graffiti person, kiddie or not, would not tag a police station.

    Edited:

    Also, some tags are good, as it is a highly developed form of calligraphy, but yeah, Murals and shit are alot better.

    This is shit:

    I beg to differ. There's a police station about a block away from me that's covered in graffiti.

    It's not done. Plus there's not many references and who cares anyway, I'm just practising building stuff. The AC is an added bonus.

    Wanted something for quick tasks (without having to move all my junk to the cintiq), for use by girlfriend and to use on the other PC in the office for when I'm collaborating with other people on projects, Also nice companion to the macbook. And if it makes you feel any better it was $25 at the pawn shop basically new.
