Quote - Charley.. I absolutely love these lights.. if not for anything else the massive boost in my render speed. Not surewhat you did with them, but my speed is 2 to 4 times faster than before I started using them. My render speed with your lights is equivalent to my render speed with hdri lights. It might be just a hobby.. but if I were you, I'd work up some sort of retail set for them and put them in the marketplace. Nothing outrageous like other light sets but who knows.. could give you enough of a little income to be able to afford some more content to get back to producing YOUR amazing renders.
Glad you like them SharkB!
About the speed; yes, I've noticed that my big lights (halfdome, ect) do produce a fair speed. I made them with a little faces as I could but still being able to 'bend' them.
Yes, I've thought about selling them. But life is expensive as it is and we are in a world-wide economical crisis, right?
That's why we need a hobby to get our minds of things like paying bills. Buying 3D stuff for our hobby is also expensive, I know.
That is why I just LOVE sharecg! I've downloaded tons of stuff from there and for me, giving my lightsets for free is a way of 'giving something back' to the community and people I so love. :)
