Throne room

Hey all!
This week's vlog!
GOD is so super awesome!!!! :D
- Easier compositing - Feathers
Oooh, what a relief! When GOD suggested I do this, I had a momentary relapse of that: "Are you sure?" feeling, but moved it anyway and when it rendered, it looked amazing, so for all I care, they stay put and they look amazing!! :D
- Fire tutorial
One of my favorite aspects of this week's video is the fire tutorial. Now, I do not consider this a full on fire tutorial, but it certainly does cover the one method I use the most. I do encourage you to refine the bottom part of the fire, so it's less like a fan and more rounded. You can use something like grid fill for example - be creative.
Bear in mind that I really want to get back to making full tutorials, but this project as well as other tasks, are really sucking up most of my time - GOD will help me get to them again, because it is something that's near to HIS heart (helping people and giving them the good news of CHRIST!).
- Still to fix
Poses, especially feet and faces. Adding some animation and fixing the shoulder of the fanner as his arm moves back. It looks weird with his shoulder static. Most people won't notice, but I sure noticed, hahaha. That's enough of a call to fix it. The same may go for the yellow line texture on the pillars. GOD willing, the throne room will have magicians and Moses and Aaron by the end of next week and hopefully a lot more modelling finished.
- Still to do
Goodness, what a list, haha. I can't list it all here, because quite frankly you will be amazed at how many things you never even think of when you make a list like this. I have on written down and it was in the last vlog, here. I will say this; it ranges from plants, insects, fowl, cattle, people, buildings, nature, etc. You name it, it still needs to be finished. Just thought of more characters that need to be done, hahaha. This is truly the largest Bible Animation HE's put me on so far!

This week's vlog!

- Pillars
GOD's idea! I totally missed saying that in the video, but it is so needed, because I actually felt over the weekend that I was going to have to model new pillars from scratch, because the court's ones were just way too short. In HIS usual calm demeanor HE just let me know that I can stretch out the pillars, no big deal. And it worked amazingly well! I am so thankful! HE helped me fix the alignment as well as the stumped point, so grateful that is finished. Everything cool and creative here was GOD's idea - whether I mention it or not. I really do try to give HIM the credit for everything, because I truly can't do it without HIM. Nothing,...
- Panic Attack
Sounds like a clever title to a paragraph, but I am actually talking about a real panic attack. I had one about two days ago and I was shocked by it. I was just working on adding the people and the guards and working on the scene when I suddenly got a panic attack. It was the weirdest thing. Thankfully, GOD has taught me that whenever there is any injury to immediately lay hands on it and pray over it so I did that, but when my right hand was on my chest, I didn't get a result. As soon as I declared healing over me in JESUS' Name again, but touching my right temple, it dissipated. I think the whole episode from start to healing lasted all of 10 seconds.
A while ago GOD told me that the enemy would try to come against my health, so I was not surprised by it and HE had prepared me for it. Plus, I now understand panic attacks a lot better. You don't have to be panicked or in a panic to get one. It's literally like someone bursting in on you and scaring the socks off you - comes out of nowhere. If you are getting panic attacks, our prayer team at Cross Allegiance would love to pray for you. It's nothing to be embarrassed about, but it is something to deal with.

- Fire pot lamps
With the fire pots suspended, I really wanted to add lights to each one. When I tried that, the light stretched way too far and it looked really odd. Finally having been given the solution (thank YOU LORD!!), it's very clear it would not affect the characters below the pots. I really do feel like GOD wants me to try and add the lamps again and see what the result is, so that will be on the agenda for either tonight or tomorrow.

This was by far one of the most amazingly productive weeks for this project and all I can say is thank YOU LORD! May this video finish quickly and bring YOU immense Glory as YOU lead and guide me further!

Hey all! I've been doing CG work full-time since 2011. GOD has been with me, supported me and taught me all the way. HE tells us to do all things as unto the LORD and that is my goal. I do whatever I believe the HOLY SPIRIT is leading me to do and it's not always easy, but it's always worth it to be obedient!
JESUS is awesome!! If you don't know HIM yet, follow the link above!
