Beautiful liquid/glass images. Love the lighting.
Alleluia! I see the light (at the end of the tunnel)!
Amen Brother Brad. Amen.
And Happy Mothers day to all the Moms.

I read the name BREDEROCK... so the "Brand X" could be most likely Lightwave...
cool update, love it

I honestly can't remember being this excited about a software release in a long, long time. To think that we're now talking weeks not months :-)
I hope when the RTM build clears QA and you send out the "come get it" emails that all the folks at modo go home, take the phones and email clients off the hook and spend some serious down time with friends, family or games consoles
. BTW, any of the modo guys on XBox Live?

i was going to ask the same question. whats the polygon count for the high res head model in Modo?

Hummmm... 10x faster than brand X... I wonder which engine is brand X. Three possible candidates:
1. Lightwave: A usual point of reference around here.
2. Mental Ray: Box-Office GI champion
3. Renderman: Overall Box-Office champion
10x faster than Lightwave is doable, and it would be substantial. I once clocked Mental Ray at about 6 times faster than Lightwave when it cam to GI with volumetric lighting, but it was hard to do a head-to-head comparison.
10x faster than Mental Ray would be awesome, even though Mental Ray is no longer as fast as it once was. SSS is pretty damn slow in Mental Ray. I could see Modo blowing past it.
10x faster than Renderman. Hey, wait, Renderman doesn't do SSS does it? It's scanline not a raytracer?

Horray! Its another great Friday update, the best thing since sliced bread. I like the hand render. I also wonder if they are comparing it to Mental Ray or Lightwave. I like the power of Mental Ray, but it surely is quite complex, I'm hoping modo to be simpiler. Hard to say, and I'm sure EdenFX uses both Maya and Lightwave. Thanks for the update!

first and sec pics, the hand doesn't look likes human skin at all, but kind of plastic. these images make me confuse about modo SSS's quality again.
hope it is not only 10x better of render times, and 10x better of sss quality.

Small update :) but doesnt matter in 2 weeks time i guess :)
Nice images...although the hand doesnt look so real to me...maybe they wanted a feel like a bmovie or something?
but the logo is very very nice!
nice one! now excuse me as i go to die in my bed :)

It should be a rubber/latex kind of material and it is a B-Movie hand, the Hand of the SciFi-Movie 'Mammoth'...

Most interesting. Though I'm really beginning to wonder: Is there anyone left who isn't on the Beta (apart from me, of course)? Man, that must be one hell of a Beta team.

Brad,
Thanks for the update. Glad to hear things are still on course for May release.
Glass/perfume images are nice, but with regard to the hand images: I know this is a first stab/work in progress/modoneophyte, but am I the only one that thinks the skin looks sort of plastic?
BTW, I'm eager to find out how I'm going to be able to utilize 201 in a rendering workflow. What animation package(s) will be supported? I presume that with EIAS I'll be SOL, but it would be nice to know what WILL be supported. I need to be able to do animation, and once I've been spoiled with it, I doubt that I will ever want to live without modo's renderer...
Edit: AHA! It was intended to look like a B-movie rubber hand! Sorry, your answer was being composed as mine was, too. You just beat me to the punch on your submit... In that case, I'd say you've achieved your objective. It looks like a very real, very rubber hand :D
