Hello,

I thought it would be a good idea to start a new topic to post the renderings of models built in mecabricks.

So here is my version of the Ecto-1 LEGO set:

Ghostbusters by mecabricks, on Flickr

This was the first time I used the Cycles renderer from Blender and the node editor. I really enjoyed doing it and I'm looking forward to improve my skills.

Thank you so much d.shultz!
A year ago I didn't know anything about render: if I made it, everyone can do it!

Here is a freshly baked render!

I didn't see the tail at first. Thx zanna for noticing it. Pretty cool!

I might actually try using Blender, seeing as Zanna already provided a tutorial, and all the pics look so professional. But for the meantime, here's my first rendering by using the PNG made by Scrub's C key and adding effects in Clip Studio Pro.

Thanks Scrubs for the code 😄

Oh heck yesss.......I can hear the thunderous low rumble as it goes across the war-torn galaxy 😄

Recently i made an initial experiment with blender's freestyle mode.

as well as rendering through the Yafaray plug-in.

Nice to see some new types of experiments 😃
There are weird lines with the freestyle mode!
I remember having a look at yafaray some time ago but never got the time to try. It's cool to see something coming out of it. Does it look faster than Cycles?

Yes, that yafaray image was about 12 min. However, in my second attempt, yafaray seems to have something that keeps it from being able to render two of the same part in different colors. Still working on that.

Maybe when you export from mecabricks in collada chose the first or second option for grouping and not the third one.

Yes, i needed to chose "Do Not Group" here are some of the experiments i did on the Lego Universe Goat. Yafaray's different lighting methods are fun!

I love the last two...! They are so crazy 😲 🍥 🍥

There's 5 more in my bricksafe. 1 for each setting of the debug lighting. http://www.bricksafe.com/pages/Umbra-Manis/renders
