“There are two main goals for these contests: Fun and Glory.
Fun: You get only 4 days to create a cool image, based on the theme for the week.
Glory: After 2 days of voting, a winner is declared. The winner picks the theme for next week.”
I don’t know what to do for this week, so I made this.(Jpeg cause the gif was too large) Still no ideas, but I learned 2 things, 1: No amount of dampening can un-jank this rigid body sim, and 2: Motion blur doesn’t work right with rigid bodies. You have to bake to keyframes.
Edit: btw I think the motion blur thing is just a bug
Gold laundry
Pure, cycles, opendenoiser, rendertime <3min., used glare and mist defocus, all made i blender, used an hdri for the sky and prepared some coin textures in gimp from some old irish gold coins. The head is sculpted and get some vertices paint. If you are interested i get an easy way to get feet base with subdiv in the .blend-file.
It is an Open entry, I can’t do character modelling at all so I purchased the leprechaun model from CGTrader and added lights, materials, fur, and smoke. Rendered in eevee. Little bit of post processing in GIMP.
