Explains how I did it in a mini tutorial, as well as some other renders.
Just an attempt to do some nifty motion blurring in bryce with an accurate framework. IE the blur is actually based on the motion of the metaballs. Looks much more realistic than my previous metaball stills. I should try another material, but this is a composite of 20 1024 by 768 stills... might be *too* insane, even for me.

this is amazing work! thank you for the information on how to do this! excellent
looks quite realistic in effect !
Amazing work, especially as it pushes the boundaries further.
bloody hell! I hope you're going to clean that up! (Well done BTW)
your works always be originals :)
holy shit!!! This is brilliant....I'm metaball freak too but I never menaged to do something like this. My vote goes for ya!
this is quite possibly the best usage of metaballs i have seen. a texture would be cool, get a dual proc to render it to disk.
This is awesome and innovative Brycing! Love it :-)
Here's one with another texture, but I'm not going to upload it to the gallery. http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?ForumID=107&Form.ShowMessage=1346415
A very interesting and independent image! Wow!
Thank you...its amazing what you can do with Bryce !
Excellent ! I'm going to read that 'minitutorial' right away !
You're pushing the limits of this software to heaven. An amazing metaball work.
For those who read my comment and don't know the other metaball works of this guy, I strongly suggest to take a peek in the Bryce Forum.
I will read with extreme interest your tutorial. It helps me in understanding how Bryce works, and therefore is the only way I have to appreciate more and more all you artists who can do such awesome pieces :) Thank you :)
I think seriously that you are getting insane... I envy you!!! mAdness is a great think!
Wow. I've been working with metaballs a bit lately but this is fantastic! I love the sense of motion you've achieved. Keep of the good work.
Fantastic! You have a patience out of this world. :)
holy crap! this is amazing--honestly, i am at loss for words.
Dude...you are my hero....You have given a reason to muck around with metaballs!
I have never used the meatball element in Bryce but this image inspires me to check it out. Thank you for taking your time to provide the mini tutorial also. Inspiring image!!
