I’ve had an idea for a while of Suzanne as theatrical tragedy/comedy masks – gonna give it a shot. (Not calling dibs – I’m sure there’s plenty of room.)

[Millani]

If I do the opposite of what the theme says, am I still following the theme?

[KickAir_8P]

This time I’d say yes!

The Other Side

Pure entry, 1000 samples.

Theatrical Suzannes

Pure as-the-driven-snow entry (even the textures baked/painted in Blender 2.8 after the challenge announcement). Cycles render, 64 samples with AI denoising, 8x5 aspect ratio, composition is Harmonious Triangles. Thing I did for this that I’ve never done before: remodeling facial expressions. Can’t say expressions are my strong suite (autism spectrum), but I’d say happy-making Comedy Suzanne’s eyes came out reasonably well (Tragedy Suzanne was easier, I just deleted the faces around her smile, turned it upside down, adjusted the angle, and remade the faces around it).

Opposites attract

Slow day here at work so I was able to work on this quite a bit. @Anam_Shahid had a similar idea I see!
Sweet and Savory (pure)

[Bassem]

pure entry, done in blender 2.81 was testing Optix with RTX 2060. and blender kit.
inspired by an old sketch of mine of the cactus and the heart balloon added the rest to them.

a bit unrelated but

The uniformity of combined prcedural textures

[combined] I believe the above image explains my dilemma. I have two uniform textures that I combine, and somehow end up with a texture that depends on location. I would like to have some insight on why this occurs.

anyone have any insight on this?

Fire and Water

Non-competing

Eevee, 128 samples, hdri lighting, filmic, animation, fire physics, particle systems, dynamic paint physics

Not quite the opposite but definitely on different camps. My idea was small meteorites hitting a small body of water. Small splash and equilibrium again.

This was an exercise in Eevee practice. I haven’t really played with it much.

"Opposite-Leaved Golden Saxifrage"

non competing (pure), cycles (512 samples + denoising), blender 2.81

This is Beautiful

[3dnotguru]

PURE entry “peacemaker”
Cycles, some texture painting, nothing special
Couldn’t understand how circular/along path array work in blender so i rotated every bolt [bolt factory] manually
Anyway i hope it makes some opposite feelings

[RayVelcoro]

Nice theme for a rainy day like today. Here a quick wip. Hope I’m able to finish it tomorrow!

[sayris]

you need both in your world
Pure entry, cycles 300 samples +denise.
Post process in blender compositor.

circular/along path array

You can use this trick using object offset setting on the array mod and an empty object :

Been wiriting a simple tutorial of it long ago :

Remember to set/apply the scale and rotation of the object, one key step that sometimes neglected. Hope this helps.
