I wanted to experiment with lots of different things - volumes, painterly shaders, glass, realistic renders. So I do so in my daily renders as I can.

I used Houdini for volumes in this first image. Ever since I've started learning Houdini, it seems like one's imagination is the limit.

An uncommon use of the Standard C4D render engine is sketch rendering. Easy to do when you learn how.

I love the work of Wes Cockx and other artists who play with glass, can you tell?

A modelling exercise where I wanted to goof around with puzzle and gizmo like. Lots of simulations here, but like the others, I ended up deciding to render them just as stills.
