My first full 3D Animation, w40k trailer!

After many hours of investigation and progress, i have finished the basics for my animations. And with it, I've managed to create and render a full clip out of my moving objects! This took me a lot of time to just let the computer work while i was gone but after about 12 hours of frame rendering, i managed to make a 42 seconds long clip in HD (720p) with 24fps (frames per second). So please enjoy my short but great creation! And thank you for watching! :)

What's updated!

Hello everyone! It has been some time since my last post here!

Let's get into the news and all the information that we all are wanting to find out. First of all, my YouTube channel DOTA2workshop has grown pretty fast lately. The subscriber speed has reached about 2 additional subscribers every day! And since i begun 4 moths ago, I've reached almost 400 subscribers! That's more than I've ever had before and what I expected. The channel contains some tutorials made by me which learns the watcher how to create modifications in the game DOTA2 which I've told about in an older post. :)

The old post can be found here.

I've also met many new friends and started programing more Java again! I'm geting the hang of this advanced programing language! :) I'll perhaps one day be able to create my first functional app from scratch, and when that day comes, I'll have you notified :)

There are two new things worth mentioning that I've been doing lately. First I've investigated in different musics in spotify and found many many classics that really fills my heart with rythm and power. I'll give you a list of them in a future post.

Now, the second thing is that I've finished two books. Game of Thrones season one as well as one book about speechcraft which informed me about many methods to turn a discussion in your advantage. The game of throne book really cought me with all the swashbuckling scenarios and tactics. I am currently halfway trough the second book, and as far as I've read, I can assure you that It's a book worth reading if you like complex strategy and mindgames. There are also series about the book, and I've watched the first seasone. It's a strong film, but be warned! It contains mature content!

That was all from me. I hope you find it interresting and usefull! Have a nice day, and remember to spend your time well! :)

Best regards,
/Michael

Hello again, Update!

I've not bean active for a while now, so i'm now going to update you with my progress in my projects.

My blender Space Marineversion 0.1 is now complete. Here is a full render picture after making him pose (Left).

As you can see, It's roughly made and needs some work especially on the knees. The textures are temporary and will be improved/replaced in time. I'm now going to model eash part in Zbrush to give it a higher polygone quality version for close spectation. That basicly means, when i'm rendering an army, ill use the lower polygone version, and while I'm rendering close to fewer warriors, I'll use the higher polygone verion. This is usually called Lod's. Lod 0 = Full Graphics, Lod1 = Lower graphics, Lod2 = even lower, and so on.

I also rendered a new Avatar or Profile picture to replace my concept art version.
Her's both of them side-by-side. :-)

"Warrior Elite, Unbreakable spirit, Astartes!"
"Supreme Defenders, Unchallenged in Battle Astartes!"
"Warrior Elite, Unbreakable spirit, Astartes!"
"Courage and honor, Emperor and Primarch, Astartes!"

Proud Astartes! "No legion war!"
Proud Astartes! Warrior Merit! 
Proud Astartes! Proud Astartes!
"Ahhhhhhhh..."
