Rendered some hi-res images for my laptop wallpaper (1680x1050).

Thank's Mark ,makes great wallpapers

Very nice.

May I ask how long did they take to render?

The longest one took 3 hrs @ 9 passes.

I want to render Nimmies house and the Tin Castle sets, but ran into problems at that resolution. Martin's taking care of it.

Thanks Martin for spending your day trying to track down the problems and fixing them.

Truly beautiful work by the folks working on TWO!

Thanks, there's still some texturing I want to add to these sets, so they're not quite done yet.

are you going to render any of the characters? if you did I would want the tinman!

Good idea. These and more should be put on the wiki for people to download.

I've been working on it. I've been running into problems with rendering some of the sets at hi-res, lots of hair, and reflections with hair is another story. I've been rendering different set for 3 or 4 days now. I'm trying to track down an inconsistancy in hair rendering between v13 and 14. I've been driving Martin nuts the last few days, he's fixed a few already, but I may have another one for him to track down.

I've found Martin just loves to be pestered. Don't hog him all to yourself!

Will this do Tanner?

yes i love it!!!

Mark Skodacek composed this scene but I rendered it for wallpaper with V14.

Awesome! That is now on my desktop.

Winkieville (1280 X800)

Design and modeling by Fabrice Fave. Composition by Mark Skodacek.

Fab or Mark - what is that dark corner in the grass in the upper right corner? Is that a peaked control point? Is it supposed to be there?

It looks like a peaked cp. I'll check it out.

Thanks for getting those render problems fixed.

I just randomly picked a scene and a frame to render. I'm going to keep doing this.

This is what it was suppose to look like.

I see light lists have been added, the base lighting will have to bee adjusted if they are going to remain.

I think it's fairly clear these are mainly WIP wallpapers for anyone who wants early ones. Most likely the final ones will be put on the WIKI for more general public consumption. In saying all that, it makes me think it might be time for a trailer soon....

Who's going to do that, Paul?

Well, you rendered them. Couldn't you at least have ensured that the beard was in position before rendering a piece that you intended to use to promote TWO?

Perhaps I am misunderstanding your interpretation of "wallpaper".

Oh, well. I'll keep my opinions to myself.

I suppose it will be me who ends up doing that... But I'm pretty booked up right now.

these images will look great to anyone who hasn't been up to their eyeballs in the project for over a year.

save the ocd for the actual modeling and animation.

Hoo Hoo - I like it. I think the rugged, almost wood like surface of KuKlips face is very interesting and I also like the also rugged wirey-ness of his beard. May not be what someone intended ? - but I like it.

The Magic Glue bottle needs texturing (duh). Can I do it at some point? Unless it is intentional for it to look like an Elmer's White glue bottle? (Is funny, if it is)

Like what Nancy said, I think the workshop image looks fine save for the Elmer's glue.

Martin, your schedule must be packed to the rafters. How on Earth do you find time to render these shots?

Funnneee Funnneee - Looks like Matt should do the glue bottle

(Quick! Someone call Elmer's to see if we can get some product placement funds...Hmmm...How about some antique Pepsi tin cans strategically placed about as well?)

HEY! Those are ALL nice! I will d'load them all and put them in my 'wallpaper master' queue.... THANX!

PS- Sorry bout the beard...that could be my fault, and not Martin's.

Tin Woodman asks Nimmie if she wants to be "Emperess of the Winkies?"

Here's one for ya.

Mark

You are the man!! The backgrounds are wonderful. The trees are simply beautiful!! I would love to see your layout when you finish with TWO. I would to be able to make trees like that.

Steve

Yeah, they're oarsome. Almost too perfect....we might have to consider film grain for the final shots.

Here's another one.

They just keep getting better!

That looks great! You are the landscape master.

Fabrice built this set, not me. I just lit it and did a few oddball stuff.

almost perfect !! my only critic is the regarding the flat stones on the ground ...

I also forgot to turn on reflections when I rendered.

Yoop Castle.

Updated below.

Updated with mist.

All kind of things will happen there ...bbbrrrrr ..........scary but beautifullllll !!! great work Mark ... as always and always

From the last scene (3_05, frame 218)

Hoo hoo. That looks GREAT!

Neato.

Something going on with the hair straw on the roof though.

Howd you get all these images from the movie TWO. But i love em anyway! especially tat moonlight one! its pure awsome material!

We are making the Tin Woodman of Oz movie one frame at a time.
The movie is almost done!
