Re: The Blowhole
Thanks for the comments guys.. @dur23, Yeah, the renders are pretty shit. I'm working on making them look nicer, and doing a high rez beauty shot.

Re: OHHH THE POWER PART II, THIS TIME FOR REAL
Thanks everyone! I was hoping to get to this more in the last few nights but due to Crunch and preparing to move up to Seattle I'm not sure how much time I'll have these 2 weeks.
