Been quite busy lately working on some images; but for whatever reason the lighting I used for some of them made rendering extremely long. The latch batch from the other night went from 3 hours to almost 5 hours, and it doesn't seem as though there's a lot of props(other than every blade of grass or leaf) to render. I know the hair took forever to process as once the hair was done it moved much more quickly. Anyhoo, I played around a bit with changing the shader on the top and simply love this plaid pattern, the colors are among my favorites. Spring is here though, and while not everything is turning green at once, it's wonderful to experience warmer temperatures once again. To actually be able to venture outside without a jacket is wonderful. It's even more wonderful when you can go outside in the evening with the dogs and see the stars without being burdened with zipping up, donning a hat and gloves. Only a couple more weeks and I suspect the warmer weather will be here to stay for a while. Unfortunately, with this wonderful warming event will come the need for yard work; but it's still better than scraping ice and shoveling snow! Thank much for viewing and your kind comments. Have a wonderful evening!
