druxey Posted June 29, 2016 #152 Posted June 29, 2016 She must be making 20 knots! That's an interesting render. The figures are very convincing. mtaylor 1 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
Magnus Posted July 1, 2016 Author #153 Posted July 1, 2016 She must be making 20 knots! That's an interesting render. The figures are very convincing. 5 knots actually. Same setup as in the other recent movies. It is an optical illusion due to the fact that the camera is extremely close to the water surface and the little waves are passing by just a few centimeters before the camera. Not so optimal after all. druxey, mtaylor and st george 3 Quote
Magnus Posted October 7, 2017 Author #154 Posted October 7, 2017 Hi, here some updates from my lifetime project after a longer break. I am revisting it dramatically at the moment. My crew got some spectacular new members. It is not perfect and amateurish but some hard challenges could be solved. More to come... This goes into the right direction ... I need some more of them: The latest effort. Made me almost crazy ... This is an easy one. He will have his place on a yard. Pulling ... The best imho out of this group ... This was the second i made ... Again on the yard. This is all for the moment. Don9of11, herask, mtaylor and 1 other 4 Quote
Don9of11 Posted October 11, 2017 #155 Posted October 11, 2017 Nice renders. The hand over hand for pulling rope doesn't seem quite right. mtaylor 1 Quote Current project: Retired www.howefamily.com
Magnus Posted October 18, 2017 Author #156 Posted October 18, 2017 Right. I have to educate myself on this topic. It is a challenge ... meanwhile more marines: DelF, herask, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Quote
wefalck Posted October 26, 2017 #157 Posted October 26, 2017 Quite amazing, the animation ! I noted the same, that the change of hands during pulling isn't quite right, as there is a moment when no hand touches the rope, which would be physically impossible, the rope would drop immediately or run out. Quote wefalck panta rhei - Everything is in flux
Magnus Posted November 15, 2017 Author #158 Posted November 15, 2017 Some progress on the ship. The bowwave animation has been revisited. There is an area below the wales being wet and reflectve. The wake along the hull as good as I could achieve it. Outmost difficult considering the complexity of the overall setup. https://youtu.be/cmEZ5ME78EE mtaylor and druxey 2 Quote

mtaylor Posted February 9, 2018 #163 Posted February 9, 2018 There are no words for this... it just has too much "Wow" in it. I've played it 6 times and every time I see more detail. The two men on the yardarm and one in the top, the movement on the deck, even the view through the gunports. I shudder to think of the render time to get all this in there.

BANYAN Posted February 11, 2018 #165 Posted February 11, 2018 Very impressive work. Hand over hand is the correct technique BUT, one hand must always remain on the rope being handled. cheers Pat mtaylor 1 Quote If at first you do not suceed, try, and then try again!Current build: HMCSS Victoria (Scratch) Next build: HMAS Vampire (3D printed resin, scratch 1:350) Built: Battle Station (Scratch) and HM Bark Endeavour 1768 (kit 1:64)

I shudder to think of the render time to get all this in there. Indeed. Render time was horrible. Several weeks. Each frame around 25 minutes. The ocean did consume most of ot. I was concerned that my little 10 year old Dell workstation would be harmed. But this is obviously what it is made for. mtaylor 1 Quote

fnkershner Posted March 2, 2018 #171 Posted March 2, 2018 OMG! This is Magnificent! How long have you been working on this? I must confess I have been dabbling in CAD recently and I have caught the bug. I will never do something like this. but I am enjoying the power provided. I do have a question - I am sure you are aware that many of us would love to have crew that are to the right scale as our models. It add life and perspective. Would it be possible for me to buy some of your crew from you and print them on a 3D printer? mtaylor 1 Quote Current Builds - 18th Century Longboat, MS Syren Completed Builds - MS Bluenose, Panart BatteStation Cross section, Endevour J Boat Half Hull, Windego Half Hull, R/C T37 Breezing Along, R/C Victoria 32, SolCat 18 On the shelf - Panart San Felipe, Euromodel Ajax, C.Mamoli America, Its a sailor's Life for me!

Would it be possible for me to buy some of your crew from you and print them on a 3D printer? Hi, it is a lifetime project. More than 10 years but of course with sporadical intensity. The crew models come out of three programs. None of them is CAD but more artistic 3D software. The body mesh and rigging comes from DAZ 3D. The animated clothing is done in marvelous designer. Then it ends all up in cinema 4D which is my big 3D suite. It is all just for fun and without any commercial interest. C4D seems to be able to export to .STL format. I need to check this .. mtaylor, st george and fnkershner 3 Quote
fnkershner Posted March 11, 2018 #173 Posted March 11, 2018 If you can create an STL. I have the printer. The most common request I get from fellow modelers is can you make a scale crew member. I would love to collaborate!!
