Disintegrate


Pure
I used like 3 samples and a lot of motion blur so that you can’t tell that most of the buildings are just boxes lol. No detail, only noise. :sweat_smile:

“They-Hulk”

Open. Very open. Didn’t have much time this week, so that’s it. A lot of old/still being used assets with a borrowed Hulk mesh which was given a bit of sculpting.

Is there such a thing as too loud, probably not if blood pouring from the ears isn’t a problem, but it might be insanity to find out.

The character is from Mixamo and the guitar is an old model, all the rest is new. I will say it’s an open entry.

Obsession

Recreation of a panel from The Killing Joke

Open - the Joker’s face was sculpted on the stylized head from Blender’s Human Base Meshes, everything else is my own work.

(edit - added background, improved ligthing, some more screens, and a big area light matching the main screen to give Batman a nice yellow-green highlight on his head)

I hear the DSM-6 will define third degree insanity as “severe and complete broccolification of the mind, leading to possible atrophy and death.”

Dire stuff :sweat:

Inside the Box

Open entry, made in blender 3.6 cycles. Despite being open and rather generic, this took me a very long time to create. I think I failed to emulate the chaos that sometimes occurs at my place of work :wink:

No time to make an entry. Idea: Shadow Stories. A scene where the shadows of everything aren’t normal and represent the nature of some madness. For example, paranoid or anxiety shadows would be menacing with faces and claws. Other possibilities like correct shadows but on the wrong objects (table has chair shadow, lamp has dog shadow), grayscale world with colorful shadows (that could work just for art), etc.

High Speed

Pure. Did a minor oilify in Gimp to better match the image/painting I was referencing.

I was trying to think of something based in the same theme. The definition of insanity…
