Thanks, I'd love to make a short animated horror film but whos got the time.
100 frames of this house takes all weekend to render.

I used Max and vray. The trees are from
http://www.bionatics.com/ a great free tree generator. and obviously the ivy is from the generator, no image will be complete without ivy now I believe.
Theres like 12 lights all with vray area shadows which is a bit overkill and slows down the render alot a should be using soft shadow maps but I wanted all the transparent ivy to cast correct shadows. The grass is vray fur and theres a scattered diasy aswell.
The sky background is generated from Vue 6.

The ivy looks really good here, as do the trees. I might have to look into getting some of these plugins. The image is really good, but I think it's missing a bit of mist. And maybe a dark shape in the window.
