SOLAR SYSTEM HD

Posted by admin on March 18th, 2010 and filed under solarsystem | 25 Comments »

I created this animation using 3ds max 3d modeling and particle sytems.
My fascination with our universe goes way back to my childhood and I’m sure many of you out there share the same interest.
Please note that this video wasn’t intended to to compare planet/sun size but just a visual representation of the solar system where planets textures are visible for the inner and outer planets.
Part 2 of this Video is now also available.
I hope you enjoy it

Super Mario Galaxy : Honeyhive Galaxy – Big Bad Bugaboom

Posted by admin on March 15th, 2010 and filed under galaxies | 16 Comments »

Please read the description before commenting.
If you don’t like the commentary, just mute the video or watch something else.
This is my first FULL playthrough of the game.
Intro made by YouTube member dembonez19.
***

In this mission, Mario will take on the leader of the Mandibugs, Bugaboom.

Once Mario lands on the starting planet, you’ll notice that the presence of Mandibugs has increased. After going through the cave behind the waterfall, the Queen Bee asks Mario for his help. He’ll then confront Bugaboom afterward.

BOSS: Bugaboom
Fighting Bugaboom is like fighting a more powerful Mandibug; his weak spot is his back, so Mario has to ground pound it. The only this is that Bugaboom can fly around, and rather fast too, so it will require some effort to strike him. Bugaboom can also drop bombs. But really, it’s not too hard to beat him.

After Bugaboom is beaten, Mario gains another Power Star. In the next video, we’ll head to both of the two smaller galaxies.
