[stefanq]

Thanks Mr. Dale

[dale]

Good luck folks.
It can't hurt to try.

[stefanq]

Congrats Marian!!!

[dale]

Yes Marian, congratulations.
You will really enjoy Thea

[Marian]

Thank you very much guys.
I can't believe I actually won something like this.
I'm looking forward to give Thea a try. That'll probably happen next week, I can't wait.

It was a luck thing. No ability or talent was requiered, just the dumb luck to have your name drawn from a list.

Oh, I thought it was a render competition.

Looking forward to see that Spaceship rendered once you both decide to build different things

First render using Thea.

That looks fantastic, how long did it take Marian?

[Marian]

It's not that fantastic...I need to learn how to get better renders.
It's was about 20 minutes of render time and 15 of setup time.

[iichiversii]

I like the reflections, and it didn't take that long

[Marian]

If I had let it render for 40 minute or an hour it would have looked better, but it was just a test. I'm now looking at the tutorials.

[dale]

Pretty damn fine start Marian.
The Thea forum is really responsive, one of the things I love about this software.
Kepp it up

Thanks, it's nothing much. I'll see if I'll be more than a lurker there. There are some pretty good artists there.

[Marian]

Btw, is there a way to shorten the render time by lowering the quality and not have these artifacts? Even on long renders they don't disappear completely.
