----[ Work ]----
Currently working on a Plane Crash III (completely new scene), coming along nicely. I also plan to work on an iPod v2 as well as another seascape sometime in the near future. Oh, and a collab between ~DesertViper and myself...

I just upgraded my PC for X-mas. I used to have:

Pentium 4 2.66ghz (533MHz FSB, 512KB L1 cache)
Crap Chaintech motherboard (SPT800)
1GB of PC2700 DDR

Now I've got:

Athlon 64 3700+ (1GHz FSB, 1MB L2 cache)
ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 motherboard
1.5GB of PC3200 RAM (perhaps soon 2GB)

I haven't done much 3dsmax work/gaming/stress-testing with it (yet!), but I ran a few quick tests; one of which was rendering a 200-segment Geosphere (radius 70.0) with the Catmull-Rom antialiaser. That took 7-8 seconds on my Pentium 4, and it's only 4-5 seconds now.. so that's cool. Expect some radical fluid simulations soon or something!

Anyways, enough about that, let's see... new year's resolutions: do more deviations involving explosions!!.. that's about all.

Oh, you should definitely check out:
- Fellow Sith lord & very cool guy! Amazing 3d work...
- Another cool guy, awesome lineart!
- Incredible Terragen stuff, among the best I've seen.
- Yet another cool guy, cool gallery as well
- If you haven't seen his work yet.. just.. go.
One last cool guy, always has great feedback and awesome work!

That's it.. see you next year (in about... 48 minutes.)

Two days ago, after a series of windows crashes, I had a bit of a scare when I couldn't access any files - thankfully chkdsk fixed the problem, on another computer. I should have backed up right then and there... but alas, I did not... it happened again, only this time it's a bit more serious - some of my 3ds work is lost.

Notably the Ship Emerge and Stormy Seas source files are gone.. as well as some other smaller stuff I never got around to working on that much.. I haven't done a deep inspection of what's missing, but just the ship emerge one is painful... I was really interested in continuing work on that. :\

Not to mention recently saved music files and some other video clips/movies... Live and learn, I guess..

Thus, there shall be more activity over the next few weeks (I promise, this time ). I'm looking for critique on most of them, some of them I'm still interested in working on and improving, so... yeah. ]]> ~midkay http://midkay.deviantart.com/journal/5853640/ http://midkay.deviantart.com/journal/5853640/ Wed, 06 Jul 2005 04:19:28 PDT

I'll be uploading more animations soon.. once every few days at least, I hope. ]]> ~midkay http://midkay.deviantart.com/journal/5734252/ http://midkay.deviantart.com/journal/5734252/ Thu, 23 Jun 2005 13:04:33 PDT I guess it's good in a way, that I feel like they should be better before I post them, because it will convince me to do a bit more polishing on all of my animations.... or I could submit the originals and use feedback to improve the next versions..
