Here’s what makes me happy this morning - a jet packed penguin rocketeer by Fabio Bautista, modeled and rendered in 3DS Max. You just can’t keep a flightless bird down, even if he has to solve the immemorial “opposable thumbs” problem that’s stumped penguin engineers for centuries.

Bautista doesn’t have a web site of his own, but you can see his gallery - and a “Making Of” clip for this image and the brief “The Great Flight” animation - in his pages at CG Society, here.
