New mini animation in roughly 24 hours! (Patreon)

Apologies for running a little late this month, just got home from a lengthy flight and probably need another work day to finalize the new mini animation. Render time was quite over the usual budget this time, since the scene lighting was done with the new RTX card in mind, which pretty much bailed on me earlier on. Despite all this I've still managed to bump up the quality a bit, with the biggest novelty being that this animation is being rendered in HDR10 format! I'm still experimenting with encoder settings, so the HDR version might not be included in the initial release tomorrow, but I'll make sure to post afterwards. Note that even the regular non-HDR formats will benefit from this, as I've always rendered these animations at a rather low color depth of 8-bit, which caused a lot of color banding in the darker animations. Of course this is a bit of a field test for the upcoming larger animation next year, hopefully by then I'll be able to increase my GPU horsepower to further increase visual splendor a bit!
