It's was a great pleasure for me to have a look at all your newest uploads dear friend! 👍

Very many thanks for the peek and the comment

Great piece and a simple fade out would fix the ending if you need to :)

As things are I can not do fades in Blender don't know if it can be done but I have two work a bouts one add frames to the Blender time tine or use the video program to fade. What I can see me doing is add frames and also use the video timelines to fade in and out

That should do the trick....I am not well versed in animation so my advice could be completely off base and only just starting to play with Blender as time permits :)

Blender is a full 3D program unlike Poser or Daz that you must buy all the props for

I use Blender mostly for the freebie architecture props and vehicles to texture and bring into Daz, when they work that is...lol

The only thing I want to make is the parting of the waters I want the water to go from calm to a towering wall and then cash down so far no I can not do it but there is always next week

I tried that in Daz back in Dec 2023 with a render I called 'Sunday Sunset #6'.

Unsure if its something you would like and without animation probably a bit boring but I do understand what your thinking of and would be a great thing to see from you :)

At this moment in time what I what and what I can do is two paths if only they will meet

I am just about to up load your image of Sunday Sunset #6 hope that you like it

I loved it. I was quite proud of that one, Sunday Sunset #7. Amazing what some animation does to an image and how much life it breaths into it :)

Thank you and did you happen to peek and Sunday Sunset #6 with the parted waves? I posted it Dec 02, 2023, just curious if it was the type of thing you were thinking of creating in Blender and animating like what you said above ?

I know what you mean with the two paths and no matter how hard you try they don't wanna join, but they will when its the right time, trust me, I am sure the bumps are just there to say, not yet but your getting close to what you want lol :)

If you ever get the chance to see the parting of the waters in any of the three Bible type movies you will understand for the time that they were made and no computers they are just great, If you have seen the very old B&W movie King Kong of the early 30s that was done in stop motion, the movie Star Wars the 1st movie the fight between the two sides was done with stop motion at one point there is 70 different objects on the screen, Stop motion one frame at a time over an light table to make each frame one part at a time, now that's what I call earning money for hard work, Most of that stop motion was done by a lady working in a small room, boy was she good

I saw something a long time ago on how they filed that scene, the mechanics of it was amazing, It was the one with Charlton Heston in it.

Movie making and the evolution of FX also amazes me today...I still watch old shows, early Scifi and still watch in awe that they pulled it all off without the tech we have today. Make you really appreciate the skills they had in the industry them. Another old time fave for me and still watch sometimes now if Thunderbirds with the marionettes....the detail in the scene and craft is still superb today I believe :)

Very cool work on this page-turner, Ian! It's amazing what a creative mind can do!

His images were great
