OTOY Forums

Here's my WIP steam locomotive. I've made a scene for it as well, and will spend the rest of the week making it look as good as I can with the limited time until the assignment delivery which is due Monday morning.

Looks good. Only thing I would suggest is have the track moving too (as the wheels are moving I mean).

I had actually made that already, but for some reason I didn't feel the motion blur came out the way I wanted - so I scrapped the idea and went for the fast solution you see in the video I posted.

I'll definitely look into it and see if I can change a few things.


EDIT
I have come to the conclusion that I'll render the floor with rails and the locomotive in different passes. This way I get motion blur on the rails, but not on the train.

The reason being I have made the train move in Z, with the camera attached to this motion, thus the Octane flag for "camera motion blur" will create motion blur as the camera spins around the train as well, which didn't look good when I was thinking of rendering it all in one go.

Here we go! This is what I'll deliver Monday morning. Unfortunately I'm not too happy about the smoke, but that's all I got time for.

Looks great
