FTS! Eevee All the Way.

100% EEVEE!  

~ 2 sec rendertime, working on the model is awesome because you can see every change in rendered mode immediately!

Substance Painter for texturing (color, normal and discplacement map for subdivided Suzanne)

Particles for leaves etc, textures for leaves & eyes painted in Photoshop

SSS, AO, depth of field, soft shadows and bloom effect

Photoshop for color correction

So this is my submission for the challenge, a project inspired after a concept from Max Grecke, an amazing artist https://www.artstation.com/maxgrecke .

It was modeled in Blender, Textured in Substance Painter, Rendered in Cycles and small retouches in Photoshop.

Thank you and enjoy!

Rendered in Cycles and post processing done in the Blender compositor... Come on Cycles!

Made with Eevee

Evee all the way!

Did this in Cycles. Took heavy inspiration from War of the Worlds. About seven hours of rendertime due to the volumetrics.

EEVEE is great... but since I can't choose both, I say Cycles!

"Coolzanne"

Everything is made in Blender and for the engine I chose EEVEE.

Here is my submission for the Eevee vs. Cycles Challenge. I was actually planning to use  Cycles, however, in the end I rendered it in Eevee. 

Still I believe Cycles is more powerful when it comes to realistic renders, if there was not the long render time... Eevee is great and I was surprised that if you tweak the settings a bit, you can still get a fantastic result! So my answer to Eevee vs. Cycles: Both are great and which to use totally depends on your project ;)

Success everyone!

I took this as an opportunity to learn some texturing. I really liked being able to use Eevee to view the resulting textures in real time. I'm blown away on how responsive it was. 

Crap...my time is just about up. I always do this! XD Wait till the last few days to do my challenges and stuff! Anyway... I used CYCLES!"Seven Hours at Suzanne's" is the name! I may have messed up the fuzz, but this is more than I've ever done in a scene! I'm glad to have done the challenge! Congratulations to everyone that finished!

Well this was one helluva close shave. Despite going into crunch mode these past few days I unfortunately couldn't get everything I wanted to be done, but I'm liking my entry overall. If you're interested on my more in depth thoughts of this piece I'll detail that in the morning in my polybook as to not clog this place up, but for now I pray I got everything done in time.

Also due to a lot of crashing and whatnot I had to render this at a low sample count to get it done in time to apologies if you see any bad fireflies or splotches or something.

Was made using 2.79 Cycles.

That's a wrap! Submissions are now closed. Let the judging begin :)
