A guy that obviously doesn't like my artwork, nevertheless felt compelled to write comments under my pictures in which he felt he had to insult my 3D figures, i.e. vertices, pixels and bytes, as "ugly", not because my work was bad, but because I gave my ladies Asian features. He was upset because they fight against "white" women - and win. I would say that it shocks me, but I'm too old for something like that to shock me anymore. I'm just sad that something like this is still possible today. What a poor, misguided fellow! I haven't deleted the conversation so you can read it and form your own opinion.

A few weeks ago I imagined a scene taking place in a warehouse. I bought a model a while ago that looked quite promising. But now that I needed it, I found that it is completely useless. I created a test scene with the empty warehouse, just putting my three characters in it - and it took DAZ studio over two hours to render the scene! Mind you with my Nvidia rtx 4060 card with 16 GB of RAM. So I had to make a warehouse myself. That is the one you see in the scene I uploaded today. I made it in Blender, including the textures that are all procedurally made and baked to 4k images. As you see, I stuffed the warehouse with boxes and barrels and shelves plus my characters and DAZ studio still managed to render the scene in less than 50 minutes. How is that? Well, it's simple: just don't make your prop so big that it uses up all the available RAM. A prop is not the star of the scene. It's just a prop!

Is there really a reason to take serious things too seriously? Or is that just self-stupidization?
