Hi,

Here is a first serious try using mesh lights in a scene, as you may guess, there are a lot ;)
Additionaly the scene is lit by an hdr map.
Rendered on a gtx480 using pathtracing, the rendering time was about 30min for the full view and about 7min for the closeup, I'm very impressed by the result in such a few time :o

I don't know for shure, but i have the feeling that Octane can handle a lot of lights with ease. If I put a lot of lights in a scene with Mental Ray the render times are nearly exponential.

Looks good by the way, it's a funny scene ;)

Yeah, I was very surprised, I rendered this scene with another unbiased renderer at the same resolution and the required time was much more, don't remember exactly but about 20 hours maybe more !!

Very nice and poetic feeling in these pictures. It reminds me a little bit of the computer game Grim Fandango, one of the best i ever´d play.
