A small collection of all the Pokemon-related SGI (Silicon Graphics) renders I've done. All made in Blender 2.7.

A special thanks to MRMO-Halftone, a shader that emulates CMYK magazine effects. You can check it out here.

More SGI computers

I got some new SGI computers. I was surprised because I thought the SGI guys from the Czech Republic gave me all their leftovers. I had to go to one of the original SGI offices in Brno this time. The office design was very 90s and there were classic SGI artworks on the walls. All the people there are now HPE employees but many of them started there working for SGI when every employee had an Indy or O2 on their desk.

The “loot” contains:

Two SGI O2 / MIPS R5000 / 2x SCSI HDD / the one with the older logo has an analog AV module installed

SGI Visual Workstation 320 / 1x Pentium II / a basic configuration with an IDE HDD

SGI Challenge / MIPS R5000 / basically an Indy without audio ports and a graphics card

Two sets of keyboards and mice, the PS/2 one is for O2 and the USB one for SGI 320

From C.S. Lewis', 'Till We Have Faces':

"Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known."

"When the time comes to you at which you will be forced at last to utter the speech which has lain at the center of your soul for years, which you have, all that time, idiot-like, been saying over and over, you'll not talk about the joy of words. I saw well why the gods do not speak to us openly, nor let us answer. Till that word can be dug out of us, why should they hear the babble that we think we mean? How can they meet us face to face till we have faces?"

"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing - to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from - my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."

Hey guys!

Cooked up something over the weekend! Nothing big, just an "updated" version of a familiar face. I think you can guess.

I hope to get back to doing more proper renders soon (the recent posts have been small stuff collecting dust in my folders). Rocket Strike on Moon Mountain really took a lot out of me, and this semester of college has been particularly frustrating, but I've still got a knack for this stuff and I hope you do too.

Another big reason I've been a little silent is that I've recently upgraded my computer after almost six years. My old computer never really caused any bottlenecks since my workflow was never computationally demanding, but it certainly expands my options for future projects!

As for the model, you'll get a better look at this guy after I test him out some more. So far, he's really great. Can't wait for you to see him.

Other than that, thanks for all of the support!

Pretty town, pretty graphics, what's not to love about Sims 3? Other than the multitude of glitches, unexplainable crashes, and lag.
