wesburke Not quite sure how long, but I didn't know about Eevee at the time, so probably around 20 minutes. It was longer than this, but Blender slows the animation at the end. I'll be doing that rocket animation too at some point, thanks for the suggestion.

Hey Max! Not too shabby for your first render. How long did that take to render?

If you're up for it, give the Blender Rocket Animation course a shot. https://cgcookie.com/lesson/introduction-to-the-blender-beginner-course
