Blender VS Maya Arnold Realistic Head Render 2024

In this video, I made a project of the famous Digital Emily for both blender and maya, to actually see how blender compete with the industry standard Arnold renderer in terms of subsurface and displacement.

Note: The blender version I didn't use subsurface anisotrophy for fair comparison, but give it a 0.8 value will boost subsurface quality of skin somewhat (only for 4.0 and higher).

I'm curious about why you are using CPU instead of a GPU? I put in 2 used 3090's. My speed increased to 10-20 times faster with the GPUs than a Ryzen 9 5900X CPU with no difference in quality with my renderings.

Bro why every Arnold Render video uses this song 😭

even by the lashes we see Arnold is better. Also, something off with the lighting, where the blender is more yellow.

cycles is way better than arnold in terms of render time
