hahaha... or a nice heat lamp during the winter months.

Was working on a man-eating type prop for a project and decided to take it a little further... rendered with some volumetric lights and radiosity.

Excellent thank you for the Info Robert! Have lots of models to share.

Hi Chuck, I see that you were asking about Police Officer models, I don't have any at the moment... but it made me curious to ask, is there a Repository of models, materials and scenes for A:M? I have a bunch of old models I'd be willing to share if their was a place to upload them to?

Hahaha... Great Stuff!!!

Thank you Chuck!

Hi J.S. I'm tempted to make an animation of Snoopy flying but have a few other projects I'd like to work on as well.. so I'll work on the animation at a later time.

Thank you Fuchur!

Thanks Chuck, fun to tweak a little in photoshop..saves me from re-rendering sometimes.

Thanks Guys! 😊

Hi Guys, Been experimenting with rendering some gem and glass like objects in A:M and decided to try my hand at rendering some quartz crystals. Have a few more things I'd like to add and experiment with in the scene so figure I'll keep adding here as a WIP when I get around to it. ( have to get back to my Snoopy post as well ) A few post tweaks were added in Photoshop like exposure and blurring.

Thanks for sharing Rodney! Looks like a fun app, looking forward to trying this out.

Thanks Steve!

Some more progress...

Thanks Robert! Yeah I've been confused about whether the scarf should be silk or wool?

Some modeling of Snoopy's dog house, Think I'll work on some texturing of Snoopy next.

Welcome to the forum Scoot!

Modeled the scarf and playing with some surface properties... will work on the dog house next.

Ohhh... Thanks for pointing this out Robert, helpful video and posts!

Worked on his feet some more... lots of 5 point and 3 point patches also using a porcelain material on the white material to soften things up.

A bit of remodeling to the the hands...

Thanks Guys! Same here Robert, Snoopy was always the coolest

After reading the latest Martin's Minutes about "Charlie Brown Books" I remembered that I modeled a Snoopy vs Red Baron a few years back using Lightwave and was curious to try the Lightwave importer with A:M. After re examining the model I decided to model him from scratch in A:M. I just get a kick out of the elegance of spline patches vs subdivision modeling it seems like you can say more with less. Here is some progress of the model so far... still working on the hands and feet and will be modeling a scarf next.

When learning about layout I remember my teachers saying to be cautious about how background objects lineup with characters heads, here it looks like the animators lined up Daffy intentionally under that tree... it adds to the humour.

I remember back in the day Hash inc. sold t-shirts. Any chance they would ever again? I used to have the H*A*S*H beige one and one that said. "say no to polygons". that was always a good conversation starter when out in public.
