Looks good. Keep on plugging away. If you switch your renderer to EEVEE and under “view” do a “Viewport Render animation”, I’ve found that it produces an animation much faster. I too have an underpowered laptop that I’m learning on. I’m not entirely sold on EEVEE for lighting and textures yet, but then again, I really haven’t gotten into those feature fully. I am very excited at how quickly it will render animation though, so from the standpoint of seeing what I have, it’s a blessing.
And when I saw “much faster”… CYCLES would render 250 frames in 5-1/2 hours… EEVEE accomplished the same in under 2 minutes. So, yeah. From that standpoint I’m pretty impressed with EEVEE.
Just food for thought
