LOL! I like the last two stats.

Interesting stats. Crazy amount of time rendering.

Now I am curious which page took the longest to render.

You haven't seen it: it was for episode 12. Also, I ended up cutting it anyway at the last minute. I've attached a small version (there's no spoilers anyone would be able to figure out in it, so this isn't a problem).

The length of time was because of the thick double-sided glass with a proper glass shader on the shower stall + the reflective floor surface, also a proper glass shader + the water with proper water-like shader + the detailed subsurface scattering on the character + indirect lighting. I decided in the end not to use it because the reflections were too distracting and strong, really masking things unnecessarily, and it turned out I didn't actually need the image anyway. I've placed the larger one in the extras folder of my gallery here: http://www.mccomix.com/gallery2/main.ph ... emId=56361
