So this effect is something I picked up for another artists quick tip I found online. They explained how to chop up the model, but not how to build the ice shader, but I could figure that much out on my own.

There's a tool in Cinema 4D called the fracture object and basically you can use it to break up your model into pieces. You can use if for destruction effects or more stylized stuff like this. Both images are of the same model, just a couple different cameras, I also tweaked the shader on the second one to introduce (I forgot what it's called) but that rainbow color thingy that happens with oil. I thought it looked pretty neat. Don't forget to right click and open these in a new tab, there's some cool detail in there.

edit: Rendered one more.

On a Steem related front, have you all noticed the steady climb on your post rewards? I read that this is due to HF20. So in case you hadn't heard, because of the limit that resource credits put on small accounts it would seem that a lot of spam activity is being greatly reduced.

The thing is, it's looking like those spam accounts taking tiny amounts from the reward pool, but over probably hundreds of thousands of accounts actually had a big impact on the overall reward pool. Now that they're being shut down, or rather made ineffective, there's more in the reward pool for us. If I'm wrong on this feel free to correct me, but I think that's what I read was happening and in that case,

GO HF20!!!

Thanks for looking peeps!

And the Oscar goes to . . . @midlet!!! It looks like a special award trophy. 😊

Haha, yea I could see that @jluvs2fly :)

Interesting effect and beautiful work! And yeah, I also noticed that same people are voting for me but rewards are slightly growing and it's nice thing to observe such a changes :)

Thanks @dunsky, and yea nobody hates a little pay raise :)

Great effect, @midlet! It's such joy to read your posts, they are all amazing!
I kinda feel bad for the face, but the chopped effect is incredible so I guess it's fine? XD
Gotta try that tool in Cinema. ;)))
Hm, now that you mentioned it, I do notice increasing in my post rewards. And probably that effects accounts with higher reputation more?

Thanks @katalinaooma! The face getting chopped up was for a good cause XD

It looks so cool!

The reward pool will eventually settle down, but it is true the entire thing is shared, it gets pulled in every direction by each stake weighted vote, and bad actors were siphoning out a hefty portion.

You know I knew that was happening, but I think I'd made the false assumption that it probably didn't have a huge impact. It would be really interesting to see some analytics on this, like how much of the entire reward pool was going to accounts with...say less than 50 SP. Wouldn't be a perfect metric, but could maybe give a ballpark idea of how big an impact it had.

If you were the only one voting on any given day, those votes would be worth the entire reward pool. I noticed the value of my vote is now higher than it was before the changes. Over 50 cents higher. The paid votes make the largest dent. If those were gone, it wouldn't cost so much to move this reward pool around. I'd guess 1000 SP would be able to move $1. I could be way off though. I just know 1000 SP would be able to move a lot more than it can now.

Legend has it some of those spam rings were moving thousands per day. I'm sure someone out there has the numbers.

Penguinpablo publishes some daily statistics but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

1k SP being $1 would be pretty crazy. Pretty exciting to see things developing for the better.
