    Using the tent from Carnival and the Indian Elephant and baby. Lighting is Emissive on the bulbs and the tent top with an HDRI in the Iray dome.

    I really enjoy your thread.  Such a variety of subject matters.  I'm so glad you got into sci fi, love those renders.  Elephant/circus tent is awesome.  Re the pipe smoking guy, interestingly, your second render made his skin more realistic too.  Maybe shifting the HDRI gave him more shine or something.

    @Worlds_Edge

    Thank you. I just go through my Runtime until something takes my fancy and go from there. I think I changed a few things on his skin too using some go to settings I use a lot. Usually changing glossiness, diffuse background colour, glossy roughness and a few others, it all depends on the skin and the lighting used. I find not all settings work under all lighting.

    Wow! Very nice renders! Great work! :-)

    Love the dog renders.  Especially the dog in the space suit.  Your video make me laugh!  I"ve always found Rolph to me a most interesting character.  He looks very lived in if you know what I mean.  The elephant renders are lovely but wow, that's a long time!  And you cheetah render has a feeling of longing and melancholy.  I sw your cowboy pose over on Serene's thread, I thought it looked very good!

    Thank you both.

    I had a lot of trouble setting this one up. I had to eventually give up on adding any more as it was already using all 16 GB of memory and a lot of virtual memory which brought the laptop to a virtual stop for long periods. I also had to adjust the lighting intensity on the lights that came with the ULTIMATE Grass & Meadow Worldbuilder as they were in the millions of lumen and were slowing the render down.

    This one is the original lighting with less in it.

    This one I dropped the light lumen and changed the fill light as it was causing the whites to be blown out. There are more items added and the render was faster.

    This is the image that has been floating in my head ever since I heard the song nearly fifty years ago and heard that line.

    One of my all time favorite songs. Interesting how we all interept things differently.  This is very different from what I see for that line.  Very cool render.

    I loved the one (without the drool lol)  I hate to see what I look like when I sleep.  I'm about 100% that I drool lol.

    Really liked Chase Me it looks like a movie still

    The western scenes are beautiful.  I love that grass and meadow set but it does suck up the memory.  Well worth it though!

    Not sure Goldie is going to make it given the look on that frogs face!

    The older models still look pretty darn good!

    Thank you Sonja. The western ones are based on pictures by Charles Marion Russell. Doing the poses was a PITA:)

    haha that is some serious mouse trouble!

    We have had a terrible time with mice this year.  I think I am up to 33 at this point.  Totally ridiculous, can't figure out where they are coming from, and embarrasingly enough, we have a cat.  The neighbor has 4 cats. My cat calmly watches me bate the traps and then walks away....Pretty sure they were coming from the empty property behind us.  We haven't had any in the last couple of weeks.  Someone moved in several weeks ago, so we have apparently killed all of the mice fleeing from the the now occupied house and yard.

    @IceDragonArt

    We get one or two coming in over the winter, although none the past two years. We don't know where they get in but they always appear in the bread cupboard, not for long though as the trap gets them every time.

    Bull Elk in Yosemite

    Three Matte  objects in these to catch the shadows for the HDRI. One plane behind the left elk for the shadow on the bush; one cylinder for the fallen tree in front of the right elk to catch the leg shadows so that they go up and over it and one small plane behind the cylinder to catch the shadow to extend it beyond the cylinder to meet up with the ground shadow.
