Rendering Section Rules

Mecabricks is not an image sharing platform. Each artwork posted shall be carefully crafted and well composed. The purpose of this section is to showcase your best work only. Always favour quality over quantity.

Acceptable Entry Content

  • You must be the original creator of all images you submit. You may not submit an image made by, or on behalf of, someone else unless you have the authorization.
  • When using a background image, ensure that you have the appropriate rights. For instance, images from Google Image may be subject to copyright.
  • Image can only be posted once. If it is relevant to multiple models, carefully choose one only.

Entry Quality Standards

  • Image shall be computer generated using Mecabricks online render mode or any other third party 3D software like Blender. Screenshots from the Mecabricks workshop are not allowed.
  • Image background shall not be transparent.
  • Image shall bring something special to the 3D model.
  • Image shall be related to the model it is posted in.
  • Image shall not depict minifigures only unless there is something special that shall be explained. Adding a couple of bricks in the background is not considered a waiver.
  • Image resolution shall be greater than or equal to 1920x1080.

Moderation

  • Any images not following the rules will be deleted without any warnings.
  • Images do not disappear. If a render has been taken down by an admin do not post it again.

External services

To showcase images not following the Mecabricks rules for the render section, you have the possibility of using external hosting services like imgur.com which doesn't require any account. Upload your image and copy and paste the BBCode provided in a Mecabricks comment. It shall look like the following:

I would have to say that the last render is the most high-quality render out of all of these

thats just some of the better ones (the rest are saved on another laptop)

Probably the biggest issue is the quality of it - most of them seem to have been made with 50 samples

i used a photo-editor to improve the quality

For comparison

Really, most of the renders are just too cluttered, in addition to the low resolution quality

how do i impove the quality more? and wut do you mean by cluttered? I created scenes like the render rules example.

"Cluttered" as in the subject of the scene is shadowed over by other additions. You can add objects to a scene while prioritizing the subject of a photo or render.

For the quality, increase the samples to 200 and also increase the resolution to the most possible; my personal favorite would be around 1180x590.

thnx for how to improve quality but the thing about cluttering can be opinionative. you could argue that the subject of the mars render is not just one of the vehicles or people but the whole convoy

It is subjective, but you can still make it focus on a subject by depth of field and rearranging the stuff.

ok, thnx for ur help

Does anybody know how to check how many parts you have in a model?

Hello tito_
When you are in the Workshop, this is indicated in the bottom-right corner of the main window. "Parts: 1000" (for example)

Okay thanks a lot!!
One more thing, my rendering looks terrible; is this because I used the free version or I have an incorrect value/checkbox of some sort?

hey uh this idiot @Username5 posted a fake rendr on somune elses model without permission (its on the front page)
the rendr is a paper that i won say wuts on it so i don get in trouble but theres a TON of cuss words
pls remove it

Image resolution shall be high enough to avoid resizing degradation when displayed in Mecabricks. 1920x1080 is a good starting point.

Which one of these do you have a problem with?
