Finally complete! This 3600-frame long fly around of the Magister has been my white whale for a while now - I have run into so many rendering issues and so many VRay/RTX bugs in trying to get it finished. I'm delighted to share it with you, and I hope you enjoy it!

As always this is rendered in 3DSMax 2021, using VRay Next Ver5 GPU. I'm using a 3090 RTX for the heavy lifting. Render times between 46s and 4m05s per frame, with about .5s-1s for post effects application per frame. Total render time was well over 280 hours in total.
Post in After Effects, using Sapphire by BorisFX for the lens flares.
