Where's the Friday Pictures thread? I'll start one, even though my renderings are never very exciting.

You will have to wait till 2015 for that. :0

I think you stepped back too far from your screen and tripped over one of the bumpus hounds.
Congrats you win the internet today!!
In a vain attempt to regain some credability for Autodesk rendering, here's a couple of images that we worked on recently.
Models courtesy of Mastenbroek in the UK. This is Inventor data taken to A360 & then rendered from there using RAAS.
I know, I'm probably asking for it, but it's Friday....

That's looking very impressive, Chris.
😉 Nice to see a bright environment, not the dark stuff as in most cases.
How about filesizes, number of parts, and rendering time?

It's not a sailboat, it's a schooner.
Here's a couple things I did recently. Well, couple weeks ago anyway, but I haven't posted them here yet.
This is a replacement gear for my cat's automatic litterbox. It's a single reduction system, with the outside teeth being the first reduction gear and the inside teeth being the pinion to drive the bull gear. The manufacturer decided that it would be a good idea to have the pinion on the motor be made of metal, and the reduction gear be made of - I think - ABS, in a high grit environment. Then they decided that they weren't going to sell replacement gears.
The original one is on the left, my copy is on the right. It's made of UHMW and I had the feed rates set a little high, so ... there's some fuzzies. (Yes there's teeth missing: UHMW is expensive, and I didn't want to spend any of my good stuff until I knew the design was going to work. This was a scrap of a spoil board from someone that didn't mind throwing money away. ) I'm going to re-cut this in a few minutes from a much nicer piece of material.

Here's a quick render of a billboard I did recently. I used Showcase to put this out in less than 7 minutes. That's right Autodesk! I USED SHOWCASE!!!
(Is that the kind of comment you were looking for Chris?)
Nice billboard Jean - Yes, good to see Showcase being put to effective use...
Walter, Niels - This assembly has 2,045 unique files, with 10,599 components, combined files constitute 747 MB on disk. We were doing some experimentation with the Autodesk 360 Render as a Service (RAAS) - see http://rendering.360.autodesk.com/step1.aspx. Note that currently it doesn't support native Inventor data, so we first opened the Inventor assembly in Fusion360; this took about 20minutes for upload/conversion. Then we used RAAS from there, after changing some of the appearances so that they had a "glossier" paint effect. I believe that each image took about 10 minutes to render.
Regarding doing similar in Inventor, attached is a screenshot (not image export), I just took from Inventor 2015, (using a newer iteration of the model). This was ray-traced using the Salt Bed IBL environment, without displaying the background image or ground shadows. I also changed the colour of the lighting subtly, so that it was more like sunset, (as it was a gorgeous day here in Oregon, for a change )
This was in "Good" mode & took about 12minutes to render on a HPZ600, dual Xeon 2.53GHZ CPU with nvidia Quadro FX4800 graphics card. The max RAM used was about 11GB. The white highlight on the cab glass could likely be improved by changing the light position a bit more or using best; I've left it running on "Best" mode to see what I get...

I think you missed a bolt on the tertiary quad-coupler from the backup effluvium damper, Chris.
And there's not enough scratches and nicks on it.
(that glass is just beautiful, though!)

Here's a screenshot of the same in best mode. You can see that some of the shadows are a bit more subtle. This rendered for 4,220seconds.
I agree it would be nice to see this in Showcase, but I currently "only" have PrDS Ultimate 2015 installed...
