New Year's open themed still image competition (CLOSED)

[pimpuppy]

Hello Octaneers!
This is my firs competition in terms of rendering.
First of all i'd like to appologise for uploading this pitiful excuse for a render, but i have to try.
I have worked my home pc (low end station with a 8500gt/512mb and i also borrowed from a friend a 8400gs/128mb) to the full and it will be a shame if don't post this.
My entry for the "New Year's open themed still image competition" is "The Gate".
The scene is small - 80k poly (but it is big for my GPU), render time 2h30min, 2400 samples, 1440x900 px.

Thank's for this awesome program ... and good luck to everyone!

I forgot to mention that this is not my model.
I have downloaded the model, made the scene and used octane on it.

Good luck to all of participants, it was a nice challenge again!

I think we all should say thanks to Octane (and obviously to Refractive software!)

Hi!

This is my entry for the New years competition 2011. The theme for my entry is learning, and what could be a better place than a classroom? The scene is modeled in Modo 401 and is my biggest modelling project so far, pretty much every polygon in the image is made exclusively for this render. When looking back on my project I realize that perhaps I should have added a teacher... I sure could have used one while making this image, lol...

Technical details:

1 056 314 tris. 203MB geometry, 267MB textures, rendered in octane beta 2.42 on a gtx 470. 3800spp at 4096*2048, rendertime app. 6h 30 min.


Thanks for stopping by and good luck to all!

My next medical submission. This time the raw data was gathered from a live patient using computer tomography. In the submision you can see three different filter settings. One for skin, one for tissue, and one for bone. As you can see it is possible to segment out both the trachea with bronchi as well as the Aortic arch. Please Keep in mind that this is automatically reconstructed from the CT of a live patient. NO MODELING WAS REQUIRED! This is an example of how we will try to get Octane to work as a dignostic tool.

Her is my third medical submision. This image is a reconstruction of data that was aquired from a patients colon using optical coherance tomography. This tisue sample was not removed from the patients colon, but rather scanned inside the colon, and reconstructed in the computer and rendered with octane. You can see the subtle stuctures of the colons mucosa. No tissue was removed to aquire this image.
