well its was iteee

nah am joking it was $hit hot, clever stuff, what program did you use this time?

[wildstorm]

It didn't look mirrory to me. But none the less it was really good. He probably used Lightwave.

[aaronv2]

mirrors are purely reflective and pretty boring... so i just gave this material a little reflection some spec and bump properties... im working on a composite today where i reach into a tv instead of a mirror

[rhys]

I dont like the bumps, you should have it cleanly soft and reflecting all the surroundings, it just looks too fake.

[aaronv2]

its a floating mirror whats meant to look real? seriously it was a test of the animation, endomorphs and dynamics. if i wanted to make it look like an actual mirror i would have... seriously why does everything in here need to be an exact clone from a movie??

[rhys]

I didnt want it a clone from a movie, but merely something that doesnt look like an amature's render.

[Zac]

i reckon it looks awesome, and i dont think hes an amature at 3d stuff

[rhys]

I know hes not very amature, but i just dont like the little bumps, thats all.

[redkorn]

hehe that was cool

[Firestorm]

Good animation for sure, although I'd like to see some sort of interesting reflection map on something like that (and yes, smoother).

[jackbauer24]

it was cool.

it reminded me of that scene in terminater 2 when the bad terminater looks like the mom and kills the dad with that spear thing. good stuff

[santi]

Not a big deal. No reflection.
Composite this with an actor and made some interaction.

[rhys]

Thats what i said, then i got yelled at by arronv2.

When you put it in your topic you named 'Matrix Mirror'. If you don't want people to think your going for the effect right from the movie. Don't associate it with your work in the first place dumb a**.

Lol.......
Dont annoy him for too long, or he will get his evil minions onto you.

[iCEbLuEORbitZ]

well. it was pretty much was very similar to the mirror in the matrix, but that doesnt mean it has to be exactly the same.... btw great render. the snap back looks wierd because it snaps, then suddenly the whole mirror is full of shock ripples. so maybe claen that up a bit if you use it in anything. otherwise great job. i wish i had time to learn 3d rendiring other than swift.

Bah! Little minions? More like little hobbits lol

[Magic-Man]

that was cool. Can you post up u reching into a tv, cause i havn't seen much of your stuff and i would like to see more.

[Zac]

okay this is off topic but freed, how did you get your avitar on there? i mean look how freaking wide it is and its a moving picture, jeez mine is just barely able to fit as an avitar in under 6kb (i think thats wat it is). wtf?

[OutcastJiob]

Look at the image properties, Zac. He's hosting it at another website, not using the MattHawkins uploader: http://shabot6000.com/blog/uploaded_ima ... ytycd2.gif .

[rhys]

So we can have pics as big as we want? As long as its being hosted by some one other than matthawkins.com?

[chrisgreen]

I love that picture, its great.
