I actually enjoy waiting for music stuff to render, the
anticipation of hearing your track that much more cleanly
with no unwanted clicks etc.

Graphics rendering on the other hand really bores me. I
don't mind the fact that it takes so long, just that you
can't use the pc while you're waiting. I tend to sit with a
book to read while I wait...

Video editing rendering is annoying too. Sometimes the
simplest things can take ages.

The worst is when something looks good when you render it as
a thumbnail so you decide to render it big and in high
quality only to find it has several flaws you couldn't see
at low resolution :/

I had to do video editing year before last and fortunately
we were working on comparatively low resolutions and I had
my GBA to hand.

Yeah i've defintiely had that happen. Low-res is pretty
useless.

Whoop, 18% of a still image done now (it was at about 5 when
I made the first post)... still, it's looking good so far.

If I was doing this as a job I'd definately want at least 2
machines to work on.

Finally finished nearly 2 hours later!

Pretty enough, but hardly worth the wait :(

It was done in Mojoworld, based on an existing world that I
edited a bit. It's fractal based world generation, it's
fairly closely related to what I'm doing the large part of
my degree on. Some people have done some wicked stuff with
it:

no.. yours is better.

I always like it when a digitally produced image doesn't
frantically try NOT to look digital (yes, those images then
look the most digital).

yours is quite good - although I don't like the sky much.

There's a guy who sets up on the street in downtown Montreal
with spray cans and cardboard and masking materials and does
one of those in ten minutes tops. I think he makes more
money than the mimes but not as much as the dirty hippies
selling bracelets.

Now this on the other hand has some nice moons and
sunsets and skylines, using only boxcars as raw material.

Yeah the sky messes it up a bit... if that wasn't improved
I'd be quite happy with it.
