As this competition ends around Halloween

I thought I'd introduce you to someone who we'll all be meeting someday.

someone who'll be very busy come the Apocalypse!

Is there an apocalypse coming to a neighbourhood near you? Then you need the RHINO APC.

Built to carry ten soldiers in full battle kit, it will fit your entire family along with all your pre-apocalypse shopping! It will look great outside your bunker, and is currently available in a range of what will rapidly become fashionable colours of camouflage.

The RHINO APC will carry you safely to and from work, and will make you the envy of your office colleagues. Your parking spot will always remain available, as the run-flat tires backed up by rubber-coated steel discs will make mincemeat out of a Beemer.

Armoured with a very handy remote-operated 4000 spm Aero Dillon gatling gun as well as HE and smoke grenade launchers, the RHINO is just what you will need for hunting small to medium sized aliens once they have landed and taken over the earth.

If you are fortunate enough to partake in the retaking of Earth, you will be so proud to arrive in style to the party, in your battle-scarred RHINO*.

We recommend adding a couple of spare 5000 round magazines to your vehicle (these are available as optional extras) for movie-style shooting occasions when you want almost limitless ammo and since they are so easy to load, your wife and kids will only have to be shown once.

For the man about town, the RHINO APC will allow you to drive right over the rubble instead of having to consult out-of-date and damaged maps or a GPS in Kyrgistani for a route around the problem.

In a post-apocalyptic world, the king of the heap will drive a RHINO.

Don't get mad, get a RHINO.

*Battle-scarring available as an optional extra

Happy now, t_3?

In the Spirit of the competition , here is the confirmation screen grab.

The mist procedural material I'll upload to the on line database shortly.

just put it on a plane and put the plane in front of your camera position.

Adjust scale and opacity to suit.

The image is still noisy , but after 15hrs in PMC mode at 4500 x 4000 pixels on my lowley 460 i'd had enough.

Anyway...you'll be meeting him again in my main scene coming up soon.

Hi all,

I think we might extend the competition a bit to allow the upcoming new versions of octane to be used for making submissions with the new features.
What do you think ?
