Before

After

Final Steve Render

Final Steve render. One with a keen eye may notice that the uv unwrapping is slightly off on the arms and legs (I forgot to mirror the right and left). Once I fix that I will upload this for the downloading and usage of ones liking.

Final 29 hours of rendering in Blender Cycles

I suppose that the orange-yellow light on the wall on the left is a bit harsh but thats nothing some quick curves could not fix

Final - color grade and glare effects

Some early tests of the rig with minimal lighting

Some bad color grading and glare effects

The cartoony aspects have yet to come. 

Some Stock Explosions

The smoke is calculated in a domane wich is a box. So that is why it clips at straight lines. 

Text Illusion (WIP)

I don't know it just looks cool

Kinetic Typography Test

So I ran out of ideas of what to type. But at any rate the motion is there.
