@pilou said: Does you must have 3DMax for install the Corona Stand alone, or it's really a Standalone? pilou, 3D max is not needed in order to use Corona Standalone, I use it with Blender and the Corona render exporter (mentioned in my comment above), but the standalone is quite limited compared to the plugin for 3D max... @archbit88 said: @novena Ok thanks a lot! I am a Cinema4d user (and sketchup modeler) but I was thinking about migrating to Blender. I will see. Do you acutally think they are going to develop the standalone version in the future or they will be more interested in developing the 3ds/cinema/big-commercial-softwares versions? Because I heard the standalone lacks some important features at the moment (for example, if you're putting a texture into a material and you want to slightly change the saturation you have to do that with another software, therefore saving another texture, then coming back to corona...) If you are a max user I guess you can understand me well thanks! archbit88, you are welcome! I do all the modelling in Sketchup and then export to blender when it is the case that I'm using Corona (I am more a SU modeler and a Maxwellian), the good news for you is Corona for Cinema 4D is the next in line... https://corona-renderer.com/corona-alpha-v1-2-for-cinema4d/ you heard well, you can not for example change saturation of a texture, the standalone is quite limited, but still you can get great results out of it, in a very short render time beside 3D max and now C4D, seems that they are not interested to start integration with other package soon... they currently have a poll, which 3D soft to integrate next, and SU is ranked 3rd right now https://corona-renderer.com/forum/index.php/topic,238.0.html best V

Beautiful!

Very nice, Pawel. Have a great weekend! _KN

Very cool. I like the last render!

@novena said: I really like the style!!! best V Thank you. I've added a download link to the first post.

Very nice work Roo! You added trees in Sketchup or photoshop?

@bryan k said: Impressive! Looks like a lot of work as well. Thanks Bryan, it takes a little bit of time, yes! I use a combination of Photoshop and After Affects, sometimes I have to create the transitions frame by frame but I enjoy the creative outlet

@majid said: Nice render , simple scene. Is distortion directly out of V-Ray? Thanks and yes it's directly out of V-ray.

Beautiful.

Wow! Mate the level of emotion and mood in the last image is amazing!!!!! Well done in every aspect!

great work

laundry bin?

Wow! Well done!

Very cool.

Hello Lucius, Great model with lots of detail! May I ask where you got the measurements of the aqueduct from? I have to make a 3D model of the pont du gard for a school project and while I can find some measurements online (like the height of the different tiers) I can't find all of them (like the height of the arch itself, or the position of the middle tier on the bottom tier). Also, the information I found is often inaccurate. It would be really helpful if you could tell me where you got the measurements from. Thank you in advance!

Your background image is being used incorrectly. You can see the distortion.

@loco said: What renderer did you use? Mental Ray

In some years, we will use a 4 components 3D printer (wood, rings, bulb, cables) to create things like this in one go

@ermin0s said: Are all the edges of that nexdome the same length? i want to build this in real, but then with those long toothpicks for meat. All the "copper" springs are the same, and all the "silver" ones are the same. Note, however, that the 3-way "splits" are NOT equal.  Since this is based on a 5-frequency geodesic tessellation of an icosahedron *(frequency 5v{1,4} to be specific,) * the three straight sections of the copper springs are different lengths.  The straight sections of the silver springs are of two lengths -- one in the center, with the two ends being the same. **CORRECTION:  ** I forgot that my last refinement (the most problematic, time-consuming exercise)  was to make the three-angle subdivision for each spring EQUAL.  Therefore, the three lengths (chords)  between geodesic nodes, for each spring, are identical.  Note, however, that the two springs don't share the same chord lengths.  The silver chords are 0.2834, and the copper chords are 0.2523, when the radius of the sphere *(to the nodes) * is 1.0000. [image: Rotegrity_Springs.gif] The CENTER of each coil corresponds with a "node" of the geodesic tessellation. -Taff

There is no post pro at all. In fact I thought maybe this is a creative look to render presets! anybody here is interested in such look?
