Render this: Mad science
- 
 It's been a long time since the last render this thread, so lets get going again. This time let's up our game and go bigger. I was made aware of this challenge on the Thea forum and thought it to be an awesome one. This is a CG Society challenge and the first I have ever bothered to enter. 
 They supply the scene/model, you can add, change, delete, well pretty much anything you want, just keep the Mad Science theme.here is a screen shot of the model:  Read about the challenge here: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=185&t=885168&page=1&pp=15 and get the model here: http://3drender.com/challenges/ Have fun, and I hope y'all will give it a go.

 To make things easier, here is the model in SU7 format. 
- 
 As usual, I'll go first  The setup:  The render:  (images reduced to post) 
- 
 Wow Solo that last image is brilliant.          
 I hope I ge to get in on this one it really looks like fun.
- 
 That a Thea image, Pete? 
- 
 Yes. 
- 
 Biased/unbiased? Resolution? Render time? Er, not much time yet to play with Thea. Trying to get my fix by proxy, I guess.  
- 
 Unbiased TR1, 2hrs, 1720 x 800 
- 
 nice cant wait to get back into 3D!

 way to go Pete. once again you've made it ridiculous for me to even try.  
- 
 Is that a hairless rat Pete?, or should I say a "furless" one hint hint? I think another render is in order  
- 
 Mad scientist indeed    
- 
 all that is missing is the fur plugin applied to the rat  
 that is a awesome render and i'll be sure to give it a go

 Nice!! 
 That plasma ball is postpro?
- 
 Great one Pete! Power render!  Im really jealous! Im really jealous! although the rat needs fur! only joking! although the rat needs fur! only joking!great choice of hdri  
- 
 Great render! 
 I would say the plasma emitters were as difficult as the fur when realism is concern.
 Nailing both would be a huge bonus. 
- 
 My first modest approach... (is a quick render with low presets in kerkythea) 
 I have to do something with that brain. I don't know how to texture it.
 Some hints, please??? 
 I'm still working o textures and lights, but maybe I'll keep the point of view. I guess I'll skip the plasma ball, lol. Looks hard to texture/model or whatever I have to do to render those lights.

 Okay...got fur, and lava.
