For this weeks contest I thought it would be kind of fun to do my version of the exploding rats.

I used this picture as a reference, and the goal was to make an animated 3d version of it. Of course that didn't quite work out, so I made my own version.

The first thing I needed was a place for the rats to be, so I built a corner using these old stone walls that had a medievil look and feel.

I added two of the three rats and some explosions, but the explosions only show up after the scene has been fully rendered.

The project was looking pretty good, but I thought it would be even better if I made the third rat invisible so you can see the explosive light inside of him, like in my reference image. So I put a glowing light material on a prop and placed it inside of him.

For added effect, I put in a few rat body parts on the first explosion. I was going to add some blood splatter, but I thought that would be to gross lol. I had a lot of fun making the exploding rats, I just hope this post doesn't bomb lol

LOL, hope the post doesn't BOMB! That's funny and for your sake I'm sure it won't bomb! It's too good for that!
And in my mind, the only good rat is an EXPLODED rat!
