Day 6
Review the checklist
- Move some of the new little guys around so they show up in the renders a little better.
Done.
- Add more welders on the bottom of the primary and put some onto the engine under construction.
Done. These guys barely show up though. They're there for me mostly, not for whoever will be viewing the image.
- There's some sort of error in the texture on the underside of the primary. Need to check that out and fix.
Fixed: It's some weird bug with Carrara. I'm using lights which are super pumped up (500%) with wild falloffs and apparently, it dorks up the lighting model and shines through stuff. I noticed this often with the welders lights.
- Build a backdrop.
Decided to bag it. Too hard.
So I finished up all this stuff and ended up with what I'm thinking is really close to final. I started new renders yesterday which are 6000 pixels wide. They're taking about 10 hours each so it's going to be a little while before we have results.
The collection of images you see here are different points of view for the final image. Came out fun!
