Sneak preview of our Analytical Engine

Hello,We've nearly finished our cgi Analytical engine, wow alot of time in creating this cgi prop, over 700 cogs, 60 shafts and a 1000 numbers! Plan28 have alot of work ahead of them, please show your support and visit their website www.plan28.org  (you can also donate aswell) Our Analyitcal Engine is based on the picture below from the BBC website by SDL...

I wanted to see the render time for this CGI prop and one still frame took 21minutes! As you imagine at 25 frames a second with moving parts and camera, it's going to be a long render session ahead. Anyway you can see a sneak preview of the frame rendered, with alittle photoshop touch to it, below...

We're wanting to give it a greenish hue as it's been tampered by the Professor so its inkeeping with the Beam weapons he supplied to Commander Goring-Shrapnel. There's also some technical film headaches coming up in Episode 3 where we have to have the Professor connect Joe's face mask(in the prop list) to it???? But we have acouple of brain cells in the co-op, so I'm sure we'll figure it out ;-)
