Ta mate, Rayscaper does the magic.

Impressive result. If it had control over real IES lighting values then it would big a good feature. But for conceptual presentation its actually very impressive. The vegetation based on region is definitely a nice touch. Years ago it was a new render engine every few months. Now its a new AI render engine every few days.

The Lion, larger version available here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/bz4vs0w0u8p6wzv/Lion.zip/file AI text After Aries, I’m continuing my series of Stands (Jojo bizarre"s adventure, Crusaders) inspired by the European zodiac signs with Leo. The idea remains the same: to imagine each sign not simply as a personification, but as an autonomous entity, a Stand with its own presence, energy, and visual logic. For this Leo, I wanted to move away from the classic heroic or solar feline. The character became a kind of cat-warrior, at once elegant, martial, and slightly unsettling. It is shown in the momentum of a spectacular kick, facing a head suspended in mid-air. This head represents a major capitalist boss, caricatured as a massive, sardonic face wearing a top hat and smoking a large cigar. This is the figure the Stand is fighting: a deliberately theatrical, satirical, and symbolic image. The character’s model is inspired by a friend’s cat, which gives the project a more personal starting point. The cat’s body comes from MakeHuman. The rest was created with Nomad on iPad, SketchUp, ZBrush, and Filter Forge for the textures and patterns. The final render, set in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk environment, comes from AI work based on a photo and 3D renders of the project. As often, AI is not the sole starting point here, but rather a staging step: it allows me to place the sculpture back into a broader narrative context, like a poster or a scene taken from an imaginary universe. Astrological Stand — Leo.

The 'proper job', no error.

@mike-amos Thanks for constructive feedback. @b2pi Let me know how I may share the file, plz?

@HornOxx I have free credis on Meshy. Feel free to ask me if you need a model

Bloody marvelous, I LMAO.

@Rich-O-Brien I like that clock, too. Once in a while I see them listed for sale but they are pretty dearly priced. [image: 1780487440729-measured-time-resized.png]

Great result. Clients must be delighted

Ta, mates rate to you so only 1.5 mil. OK, you talked me down so 50p. I found a site stocking Gaggenau stuff and had a look for inspiration. I could not find a single unit with zero symmetry faults so started again and went down the Rabbit hole so it is completely different from origin. I will revisit at a later stage. Done though.......

[image: 1778537724974-flyball-governor-b-resized.png] Here's a flyball governor. Modeled and rendered in SU2026.

Most excellent !

Wow. I will have a look.... looks like a nice weekendwork.... Danke schön

Thanks, Liam Im not much of a cinematographer but it's always fun to use UE's sequencer to put together some shots as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQEwpUfe4Os

@panixia There's a link to grain assets but it's in a readme and it's a drx file for DaVinci Resolve. I'd look into it more this morning but at the moment I regret not having invested in a retirement plan allowing me the ability to not do anything for the rest of my life.

@Rich-O-Brien Here it is: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bUZHDoUDX1JepP5k6?g_st=ic

Very nicely done, something of an epic going by looks alone.
