I finished building my new computer yesterday! I'm learning how to use the Cycles engine renderer, it is much more powerful than EEVEE, the engine I was using to render with my old PC. It is easier to make things look better, but it takes much more time to render than EEVEE. I probably won't stop using EEVEE all together, especially for animations, since I'll finally be able to render them in 4K

edit: also added a bonus version of Cammy animation with her OG outfit!

Looks gooood :) is it a wip from a future animation or just some random Cycle tests ?

just a test for now, I still need to learn how the lighting works in Cycles, it is completely different from EEVEE and it's like I'm new to Blender all over again! The rendering time as well, I still need to learn how much samples to use, I have a RTX 4070 on the new computer and this single frame took me 105 seconds to render, but with a different model and different map I was able to render frames in 20 seconds

Awesome! What are the specs of your old vs new PC if I may ask?
