...is finally done. What I thought would take like, oh, four days, turned into 3 weeks.

The inspiration was the idea of the servers finally shutting down and all that data just... going away.

I set really high expectations, way beyond my skill level with Blender. Like that blasted mofo'ing tornado sequence. I had in my mind a lot of things but I am still proud of what I was able to make.

Also: the song used is "Incarnates" by OminousVoice

We are the crazy ones, the mavericks, the dreamers, the forgotten sons. We color outside the lines for fun. We are the crazy ones! - "The Crazy Ones," Stellar Revival

Awesome.  And the flood of viewers should be pouring through the door any moment now.

Very, very powerful...

Closest I've come to tears in the last month...

Very powerful indeed.

I have to ask how you got the models into blender.

Ah yes, this definitely went in the direction I was imagining from the preview. The "dust in the wind" effect gives it a really sad and creepy vibe and the music goes perfectly with it. Bravo!!

I think it is superb! Poignant de-texturing. If you know what City of heroes is supposed to look like, it really hits home. It makes me feel like we are being stripped of our colors, which equate to our virtual identities, by NCsoft who perceives the community as insignificant. Something like that...words...words...even better words.

Thank you, voodoogirl!

Rendered using Blender's "Cycles" renderer - but took too long. 13 minutes for this one shot.

What I'vr been able to see looks very nice but it keeps timing out about half way through on me. Both yesterday and today...I'll try again when a real computer is available :(
