Thanks! I go really inspired with this one, it started as something really simple, but then I had to force myself to stop xD

for a second there, I thought you were replying to my submission (bc it’s right below it); & you can imagine: “I got really inspired with this one…started as something simple…then had to force myself to stop…” I thought you were having a sex-romp or something, inspired by…well, anyway…hahaha :rofl:. (it’s not you, it’s me…)

anyway, Yee, your mining robots are awesome!

Awesome stuff guys! It’s already going to be tough to choose, and I have a feeling there will still be a few more.

@FedPete Welcome to the party! You’ve been holding out on us! :open_mouth:

@Bradley_Bowers A provocative work! Are you anticipating the competition will be graded on a… curve? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

How do you get the lightray of the flashlight?

Because I added a lite volumetric fog (principled volume) to the scene. (Just a cube, with that shader)
If you do this in Cycles, you get a lot of firefly problems.
The squares at the beginning of the beam is just an Eevee artifact.
I have no idea (yet) how to get rid of it. But I saw it also as a lucky accident (I like it).

Here a test run in Cycles 128 samples. The beam is nearly gone, but the light glow is much much better. In Eevee I added more lights to get some of the glow back (it’s not all blooming effect).
And in my final scene, I used 7 lights.

It looks like so. But it’s all basic Blender stuff you can learn here. Really!
PPE Suite just a bunch of spheres attached to an armature (for posing arms). The barrel is a cylinder. The flower is a random thing. The wall and floor, using a cell fracture add-on (breaks a cube into parts).
Important is time and project management!
You need to be able to finish on time. And easily switch, combine, move and or re-use objects.

:rofl: Not my intention. :rofl:
But while I was working on my latest animation, I became disillusioned with animation aspects of Eevee. And then I saw this challenge, got some renewed inspiration. Taking distance from the other project and rethinking how to solve my Eevee problems later on.
With this weekly challenge I had no problems with Eevee at all. I even liked Eevee …

The glow in the cycles version is cool, but it’s a bit over-powering. Also the spotlight is pretty crucial, so it sucks to lose it. I think you made the right choice going with the Eevee render.

This was my only nitpick, since the rest of the beam is smooth, and the scene is high poly. A very minor thing though. I think “Tile Size” is how you change it:

Lower numbers are higher quality, so 2 px is actually the best, but more intensive.
