Combustion, I wouldn't say you're doing anything wrong with Iray per say. You render much smaller images with much simpler set-ups, which seems to work for you as you do long, faced paced sequences. If a style works for you, it's not wrong.

However, there are many other factors other than size that will increase render time (and quality) fairly dramatically.

As a side note, I've just come back to a 12 hour render, it's only 5% complete and I'm starting again. The eyes weren't clear enough.

Yeah, at least now I understand why I get those grainy spots on darker areas of the scene even if I let it run all the way.

So do when you do a render do you just set the run time and number of iterations to as high as possible and let it run? Or is there some other extra setting you have to do?
