I've spent pretty much my entire spare time this month rendering the motorcycle that I've been working on. It took a lot of time to try out different materials, lights etc. But it has all been worth it up to this point because I really dig the results so far. Lots of grunge, dirt and attitude.
What I did was I exported the Maya file as an stl and then refined the setup a bit in Blender. Having done that Blender Cycles was used to render all the images. Some images needed higher sampling so I allowed them to render overnight for up to eight or ten hours per frame.
There's still some work to do until I think I'm done with this project. Oh, and I've now edited 55 hours of time-lapse footage down to just two hours. The video only needs to be put together at this point!
I have some more cool angles on my hard-drive but here's some of the finished pieces that I can share.
Haven't decided yet which of the images go to my online portfolio.
I'll post the time-lapse video once I get it done.
I also uploaded the model to Sketchfab. Check out the interactive preview below!
