A little watery cave…

Well, I learned a lot about the mechanics and construction of escalators today…
Annnddd, as a special bonus, a nice demonstration of what you should not do with an area light. The second render is one that I started well before the deadline. Took nearly an hour and a half. I think (but I'm not going to check right now because it's stupid late), that it's because I put that orange area light in at the end of the tunnel. Well, turning sampling up to 9x9 probably didn't help either…

Where did you think geometry lights grow? Now you know

Just made it…oh man, today was rough.
Day 25: Underground
crystal cave
I got some really cool results for making a cave using what I learned from when I explored height-fields for the “peak” challenge. Trying to texture it after setting up the scene? Different story 
Tommy visits the Abyss
Edit: Had wrong transparency sample settings and rerendered. Original submission (underground5.jpg) is still attached though.
Edit2: Attached community hip file.
Extras used: A normals texture and some very early prototypes (as subnets) from the the toolset I'm working on to generate the cave wall geometry - nothing fancy though. I also ran Tommy through mixamo to get the hanging pose done quickly.
