Hello,
This is my OPEN entry “Airship

I have tried to make an good looking airship but what I have end with is a total disaster because of volumetrics. Cycles 1400s + denoiser and it still have hot points.
It is open because I have used “MakeHuman” software to add some people.

As a Godot user I follow this guy, but due to the occurrence of this new post I wonder if GamesFromScratch is a WC attendee too?

Who knows if I’ll get around to this, even though I need more spaceships…

Thats nice.
Im in the mist of doing the same thing… Your tower came out good along with the use of MakeHuman (good call)… i got stick figures, lol.

i think if you added a backround of stars and space this would be perfectiona nd some glare effect to blend it in

Open Entry (HopsCutter$) Textures and post all done in Blender.
Cycles - 500 Samples.

“You came in that thing?”

A very quick and dirty entry this week. Took me about 3 hours. Unfortunately I don’t have any more time. Still, it was a bit of fun to play around with it. Cheesy post effects were mandatory!

I don’t like to make humans/animals in blender. It is very time consuming for me. This time I tried to recreate this photo.

Yup, same here.
I did desert landscape instead of air force base. Seen that MakeHuman addon mentioned a few times, just downloaded it. Im new to modeling (in the past alittle Solid Works from time to time, but all simple stuff), making a person is over my head right now (hence my stick figures), but gonna give that MakeHuman a try some time.

Heres my wip as of now, still have some finishing touchs left (tried to make all textures Procedural (the first for me)).

My Entry…

  • Tribute: Don’t forget the past…
    Pure - Cycles, 64 samples, all textures (aside from ground sculpting) are procedural, de-noise from the AI Denoise Node in the compositing tab.
    Based on Sam+Shere’s Photograph. Rather then creating the scene at the air field, mine takes place in a desert.
    Wish i was better at Blender to do a render like this justice, no disrespect intended.
    Want to try and keep the black and white feel like the real images. Used two simulations; fire and cloth. Cloth for parts of the Zeppelins skin, wanted it to peal away near the explosion but didn’t really succeeded with that. Along with the black and white i also wanted some noise/grain so i followed a compositions node “film grain” by: youtube ‘cgvirus’ and also added a mix node for the AI De-noiser to make it a little grity. Couldn’t resists trying to make this Black and White render also color so while in the compositing tab i did a little animation to go B&W to color. Pretty sure this is the first submission of mine where i didn’t use any downloaded textures. Everything is procedural with some ground sculpting. Also tried out the cameras DOF.

Rendering a Black & White to Color animation now, will post that as my submission once its complete and uploaded. If something goes wrong with the animation, the B&W render below will be my submission.

so here is my entry:
“Upside Down John”
pure- cycles - 65 samples


“The skyturners are one of the most fascinating creatures of this realm, as they possess one of the most unique magical powers on record, the ability to suspend and invert gravity at will.
Legend tells that the Sky pirates had being training and building their ships around those beasts for millennia, to take advantage of their magical ability, and perhaps no one had done it better than the legendary pirate known as Upside down John.” - Abhan Azfar, on The Four Provinces and adjacent lands;


I tried a lot of things on this project, and had to delete half of it because of memory constraints (while trying to render the final, pc blue screened twice before i gave up), reason why the ship is so simple, but I’m still happy with the result. here is a version with bubbles, for no reason:

Got carried away with the modelling, lol, had no time to do full environment or textures, might revisit later after the challenge is over. Enjoyed making this anyway, hope you all like it.
