Yeah, she kinda does. It must be THAT kind of fruit punch. :)

Sonata almost sounds drunk in one part

@Stellarator  
This is AMAZING Work

This has nothing todo with an Anime

This is actually pretty hot

@Blissey1  
Thanks! :D

The rendering time was about 1.5 mins per frame, on average. The new cycles de-noiser is magic, and I left it on the default settings.
 
I used 64 samples and max 3 bounces, which would normally be noisy for an indoor scene, but in this case the I made the floor and back wall, and everything else is just exposed to HDRI lighting. That makes a HUGE difference, because almost every sample is going to bounce off to infinity and be lit by the HDRI rather than needing to bounce around a bunch to hit a light source.
 
Also to make the hair not hose my render times I set max transparency to 8. In some cases that can cause issues, but in this case any sample/ray that passed that threshold would be already deeply buried in the hair. If you are doing leaves with alpha or something similar that would not end up looking as good.
 
Also there is an addon called “random cycles seed” which randomly changes the sampling seed every render/frame, which means any artifacting you have do have gets list in the animation.

impressive!

@TheHellbunny  
I’ll give you details when I am back at my pc later

What was the rendering time of this, and how did you get rid of the grain in Blender?

@OC1024  
Noted

@Stellarator  
All three of them. Ponies tent to have a high volume hair after all and so have the EQG.  
Imho here the hair is much to flat.

@OC1024  
Whose hair?

It looks quite good but would it be possible to have the hair with more volume?

This is a lot of fun! I hope you make more of these.

very nice

 
maybe is sonata, if the heads were bigger, it would have been more appealing

I fixed the problem with the hair freaking out. I’ve re-uploaded it as >>1623003 and >>1623004 and now any problems you see there are at least faults of my animation, rather than of a derped checkbox.

Man, the movie did it with humans, but this guy even went as far as animating their equine ears with expressions.

The syncing isn’t great and the hair is a bit thin, but I’d say that this looks real pretty.
