Hello.
First time poster, but have been using octane for the past couple of months on this project.
The project in question is a music video featuring an animated pubic hair character. It was created and animated inside Houdini, and then rendered completely using Octane. We'd never used Octane before this project, but after some research, we decided to take a gamble. So we bought the software, as well as a brand new machine (with 3 x Titan X Cards inside). In for a penny, in for a pound, right?! And our journey with Octane began. And I have to say, that it was the best decision we could have made. We loved working with Octane. Not only did we find it fast, interactive, but also found it really doesn't take much work to get some really stunning results. Anyway, don't want to seem like too much of a fan boy, but needless to say we really enjoyed the experience.
Anyway, here's some screenshots (below), and the final film (below that). I just wanted to share it, so you guys could see how we were using Octane. And of course very happy to answer any questions.

AND THE FINISHED FILM:
