Description
Doing some tutorial following and experimenting in Blender. I haven't used this software since back when it was so buggy it crashed everytime you added a new mesh. It seems to have come a long way since then
Go here for the tutorial → [link]
It's interesting to discover, but basically the subdivide-surface modifier is god.
As far as my personal experimentation is concerned, I was mostly focusing on render settings. Working with the Cycles renderer is exciting as it seems to produce really stunning results right out of the box.
Render Stats
Renderer: Cycles
Size: 1920x1080
Samples: 10,000
Render Time: Unknown (I forgot to note the time, but it ran overnight if that gives you any idea)
Computer Stats
CPU: Intel i7 @ 2.40 GHz
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows 8 (bleh) x64
Will move to scraps soon...

ummm why would you do it 10000 samples that is such a waste of time lol take a look at my page if you wanna see some blender work [link]

Dunno. The shadows kept ending up looking grainy even at 1000 samples, so I up-ed the samples to a ridiculous amount and let it run while I slept. I took a look at some of your stuff but the highest sampling I saw was 1000, which didn't seem to work for me. What would you suggest?

well if you are doing the render at 1920x1080 you can zoom in on the image to 100% and if you can still see the speckels I would sugest turning it up by 200 to 500 at a time and just look at the results as it goes you dont have to re render the full thing. it doesn't help that your computer is pretty slow but with blender thats not as much of a factor. another thing you can try to get rid of that grainyness is to turn on no caustics in the render options that helps sometimes. good luck and hopefully you will never think you need 10000 samples again

Ah yes lucky. I wish I had stuck it out with Blender from back when it was first being developed. Instead, I picked up some experience in 3DS MAX and MAYA, but didn't do much of anything complex. Then I got consumed by Flash animation.

the learning curve is much shorter in my opinion i have 3DS max but i dont use it because I have no reason to because blender can do every thing I need it too I dont have to pay extra to get a better renderer or a smoke simulator, and I prefer the controls and ui in blender.

Without a doubt Blender's controls and UI are better, but I was able to pick up a lot of 3DS MAX by just fooling around with it. Blender just has a steeper learning curve in my opinion is all. Time will tell if steeper makes it shorter

btw ... did you study about 3D? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah for my freshman year in highschool. im still and high school so I probably wont learn about more complex programs till I go to an art school and by then they may be teaching blender its getting to be just as powerful as 3ds max and maya.
