This is a test for a short I’m working on. The spider tank is going to be used in a battle scene for a short I’m working on. It’s a six legged tank that I downloaded from Turbosquid.
I shot the footage on a Canon 60D and tracked the footage using Voodoo. Then I imported the track into Blender, animated the tank and rendered it out.
I used a gazing globe as a light probe and set that image to Global Illumination. It still needs lots of love before it looks like it belongs, but its a good start.
If anyone has criticism, ideas to further improve the composite, or anything they’d like to see the tanks do, give a shout.
