Special effects or not it sure catches the eye.
Thank you, Graham!
I almost never use C4D as a rendering engine, but here's one that I think worked...

You really pull some amazing stuff out of that head of yours, Gary. The image brings back memories, chocolate shake and an order of fries please.

I'm not sure there's any deep meaning to this.
So if I'm not sure, then you're not sure!
I did this as a tutorial file for a graphics book.

I have no idea what the tutorial will be It (I'm open to suggestion), but the Cool Factor in my mind drove me to the finish line.

Tick-tock,

I think it must be one of those "How many earth's does it take to screw in a light bulb?" or maybe the earth is a light bulb without a socket. Geez, I think I'll have another one of those. please.
Are those the new line of watches from Rolex? I have a friend with a couple of Rolex watches, poor guy never gets a compliment on them or even noticed. I have another friend who has a fake Rolex. I think it's called a Folex or something like that. He gets compliments on it all the time. There's a moral in this story somewhere, I just haven't found it. Anyway I like your watches, Gary.
Thank you, Graham! I haven't really been contributing to this area lately...
Yes, there's a moral there. I have a habit of buying the cheapest, weird or impressive-looking watches, then let the battery run down and buy a new one because watch batteries can be 50% the price of the watch.
Then I let grocery store cashier wax fondly over their origins. "Oh, I love your watch. It looks like a museum piece or something. It was expensive, wasn't it. I'll bet there's some sort of story behind that watch. You're an artist, aren't you?..." and similar.
When I'm in a hurry, I just smile and silently mouth, "Thank you."
When I've got time, I tell the truth, "Oh, no. I got it at Sears for $10.00. But thanks, and I do like to draw."
I based the art above on the Swatch watches, my first I got in Florida in 1985. They'r emore or less the same company today, except you have to mail order them and they're about twice the price they used to be. The founder went on to start the SmartCar company. The principle is the same: you make reasonably prices goods, short runs so everyone can have a unique color and style version of the item.

I remember when the Swatch appeared. It was very forward thinking for it's time and got a lot of PR.
Love it!! You've got too much time on your hands, Gare.
Bob.
Gary that's fantastic, you never disappoint.
Aw, shucks (looks down and scuffs shoes together)—
In reality, I don't have enought time!
If you read the opening credits, I did that animation almost eight years ago!
Here's a very short, and hopefully funny, tongue-in-cheek tribute to bad science fiction movies, specifically where human look-alikes are created, whose 2 purposes are 1.) to kill their original, and 2.) to put weeds in your garden, and control all big businesses, starting with Taco Bell.
My pal Casey posed for the modeling, and I used a forensics program to try to simulate the head.
My Best (and off to kill my original),
Gare-ARRRGHhh
As you get older time becomes more precious and is always in short supply.
Love the face. That cyber corp is everywhere. In a few years probably not that far from the truth.
We get these migrating up Route 81 in the Fall...
i wouldn't play chicken with that tractor
I thought the world had been looking for undustrial-grade poultry.
Perhaps not.
was that a deliberate typo
my sister used to say hopsital for years before she got it right
Funny, I used to say 'medical centre" until last year.
Now? I call it a hopsital.
New Stuff on a shorter thread
My Best,

A tractor chicken. You can till your garden then have deep fried.
A capital idea, Graham.
Just smashing.
And grinding, and pulping, but
first you have to pluck the tractor, or chicken...
:)
Gare
They say it tastes like chicken. :)

I was just trying t be snarky with the genre of late 1950s films that had you scared of everything. Now, we have a President to do that.
