basically just a render to test how fast this computer was 🙂 I just found this (I havent seen it for a while) while cleaning up for a linux install.

  
I made the model in bricklink studio or whatever it is called, then used meca bricks to send it to blender. Its loops as well.

This is supposed to be similar to brickmaina’s opening videos.

Hey, hi there!!!

I’ve seen your work posted around here and haven’t commented on any of it, yet.

I like what you have going on here, it’s looking really good!! I know it’s just a simple test render, but the one thing that stood out to me was the lack of a background. Without a background, it’s kinda hard to tell how the helicopter is moving, what direction it’s going in… Even a couple of cubes, off in the distance and out of focus would work.

I mention this because at some point in time you’ll will learn these things. A helicopter lifting off with cubes in the background would give you an urban environment. Cubes disappear as the helicopter lifts off and flys, giving you a sense of direction. More out of focus cubes around the landing site and now you’ve got somthing more than a simple animation. You’ve now got a military helicopter taking off, flying around, and landing in an urban environment.

A good starting point for the next big blockbuster action hero film!!!

Looking forward to more of your work!

Randy

Thank you very much Randy. This no background decision was intensional. The animation is supposed to be similar to this starting animation [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAruLrE9UE4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAruLrE9UE4)

Gotcha, I understand.

Forgot to mention, video hosting site that is not YouTube, take a look at Vimeo.

It’s what I use.
