Beauty Approximations

Wrapped up this simulation for a short film . It's a ~100m wide crack coming from sliding landmasses. Maby you'll spot it in a certain novel film one day (from what I've spotted it looks interesting).

Per request I've uploaded the latest version of the shed video (200MB). www.bhenriksson.se/projects/shed/shed_seq001_v017.mov

Crumbling the ground before it shatters. Black regions are breaking and falling down as in last post.

Doing some fx stuff for a short as I needed to develop a similar effect for smashing up my crystals. Animation here .

3d render handed over to out art department Marcus Forsberg. He will now paint over this and give it a more stylized look which we will then recreate in 3d.

Distance fog, more forests, more hills, ground more detailed, ground textured and overall more details.

Smoke in scene.
