Default Mayan Tzolkin

I'm doing a bunch of animations explaining the Mayan calenders as these interlocking gears. Here's a shot from one of them.

Excellent..anything Mayan interests me.
Just one point though....some of the carvings seem very sharp while others seem more worn...was this intentional?

It has more to do with where the procedurals happen and how the light hits it then anything intentional on my part.

I was trying to make it old and worn. I figure the teeth have to grind. I stopped short of water stains and other little goodies due to time.

Looks really good. Do you have any intention on adding the water/moss/dirt that you alluded to at any point?

Nice Zarathustra! looks good..My only suggestion is to make the background a bit darker to contrast the gear a bit..but this might be more obvious in the animation..Keep posting updates I love this old weathered looking stuff!

Yes, just procedurals.

No, I probably won't update it because I have a lot of stuff going on and this project is just about over. If I did, I would have to find some free, personal time to noodle with it.

I'll post a link soon if anyone's interested in seeing some movement.
