Cloths and particles

While exploring the cloth model in Blender, I've made this simple test, where I included also a particle system to simulate this magical trick ;). I'm quite impressed with the quality of the cloth model, despite its simplicity.

Revamping

Blender is used not only to make animations (image sequences) but also to make single images. There is an annual event, the Blender World Cup where in fact artists submit their single shots related with a certain subject. This year's topic is "The other world...". I'm not sure if I'm going to submit something, probably not, but if inspiration comes, who knows?
For now I'm showing an example of a single image I made for a revamping of a blog title image.
The blog is Bolinha Baixa where I write as "quartoarbitro" and I show you here the previous and the new title images:

I'm exploring the particle object in Blender, which is used for many things, like smoke, hair or grass as shown in the image. It is also used when you want to replicate several similar objects, like a swarm of bees, for example, where you substitute each particle by the object you want. So the range of applications is very wide, as large as your imagination.

5th and final shot

Well, the last shot also does not show anything special, just a walk of the Bride, Groom and the children we expect them to have ;). This scene was the final one, here it is complete, I made it long enough to have time for the credits and so on. You just have to watch the first 30 seconds, unless you want to hear the music.

Technically, the grass is not very good, I've already found a way to create realistic grass, but for this scene that detail was not necessary.
