Description
This render was previewed 2 days early for my patrons on Patreon! You don’t have to feel obliged to join my Patreon, as I plan to make everything I do public at some point, but any bit of help I receive will be put towards upgrading my hardware that I use to create these renders, and if I get more help I could start taking steps into making this my job (and will release my models to the general public if I make it to $300 per month, and I’m already half way there!):

| Title means two things. I’m currently playing with clouds in Blender by filling meshes with volumetrics and such. But it also means Pinkie’s also playing with the Clouds… Or I guess IN the clouds. Close enough. Might as well try to get used to working with clouds as they are pretty relevant in MLP for Pegasi, whenever I get to modeling wings that is. |
| Before this went public I decided to try to improve the clouds a bit more as I wasn’t entirely happy with it. In fact, if you want to see how this evolved, here are some early WIPs that slowly progress to what I have now: |
| slowly progress to what I have now: |
| Version 1 |
| Version 2 |
| Version 3 |
| Version 4 |
| Version 5 (This is what Patrons saw early) |
| Version 6 |
| Version 7 |
| Version 8 |
| And Version 9 is where we’re at now. And it took 19 hours to render at 4K with 1024 samples. Shoutouts to clouds. It took way longer than I anticipated, but oh well. Thankfully denoising is a thing, otherwise I would’ve had to render at least 4x as much samples to get it to look somewhat clean in the end. |

Oh believe me I know. I never got anywhere near where you at (can’t model or animate for crap 😫) but I did manage to make a cup once. All we have is a basic home pc and rendering that cup took 10 hours.
perfection takes time
You need a render farm lol
Rendered on two Nvidia GTX 1070s. Rendering something like this requires a lot more power than you may realize.

Man I really wish I had the money, because this pinkie is just super stellar and amazing. Thank you for bringing pink sunshine to my desktop anyway though
