Default Renderman Eval Download!

For all of those who use Maya, Pixar has released a download trial of Renderman for Maya. I downloaded it last night, but haven't got a chance to install it yet. I'll post some renders when I get some done.

Well, Renderman is conisdered the de facto renederer in the industry, so it's supposed to be at the top of the pile. Pretty much every major facility uses it for ultra high-end stuff.

When I get some time, I'm going to post some comparsion renderings between Renderman and mental ray.

highend3d.com has some good Maya/mental ray stuff...there are also a few other sites out there with good info/tutorials on mental ray.

I've sinced switched to C4D, but I still love mental ray...I'm thinking I can develop a workflow that incorporates it but I'm waiting to see what VRAY for C4D will be like first.

Digital-tutors.com has specific tutorials using Maya and Renderman. The stuff at their site is excellent and well worth the price.
