V-Ray for Blender 7.4 gains ARM64 support, ocean textures, and faster light workflows

Chaos released V-Ray for Blender 7.4 with Windows ARM64 compatibility, Phoenix Ocean textures for exterior scenes, Quick Sun Caustics for realistic lighting, and tools to organize large asset libraries and migrate from Blender's native renderer.

This was a very fast personal work. The theme of the image is Satiation - the sudden and ephemeral feeling of complete satisfaction. Like when you feel extremely thirsty and then drink a glass of water exactly at the right temperature....perfect. And then that sensation just disappears. I chose a female character in a pose somewhat erotic that would summon the idea of sudden pleasure. Inspired on the famous Vénus de Milo I focused on the torso and did a scriptted fluid simulation in Realflow to get the mesh. I rendered it in 3d Studio Max 2010 and Mental Ray using a very simple set of lights end some self-illuminating planes. My intention was to guide the look towards the upper right corner, focusing the most intense highlight on her face and using the motion blur to emphasize that climax. Only after that the look comes down to realize she's already disappearing.

Software: 3d Studio Max 2010, Mental Ray, Photoshop
