Igor's renderings

igor

no, i mean that i can have a seamless textured bowl (with projected texture), and when i render it, it looks all tiled and everything. and it looks like the texture is really tinny, even if i scale it up. what gives?

oh and btw, im not yet using bumps, so you can scratch out that option.

solo

One other thing, copy texture and apply to reverse side too.

igor

it worked!!! thanks solo, sorry if i kinda snapped at you before, i was just kinda ticked at SU...

oh and thankd for the texture tip above. but wait, what is it supposed to do?

solo

Great to see it worked out.

Below is a very fast idea of what a bump can do on a projected surface, excuse the crude low poly domes.

igor

im starting a new series! its baisicly just me playing around w/ reflective TINs. a render is baking as i type, should be ready in an hour or so.

igor

here is one!

incase the image thing doesnt work heres the link:

remus

wow, that one was going for a long time, did you use noisy settings?

igor

yep. here's another. left it on noisy whil i was @ school. once again it wont fit in the post, (could it have something to do with the fact that i always format the renders as PNGs?) here it is:

or incase that doesnt work here is the link:

why does the image thing keep not working! i got it wo work before. is there a trick?

igor

alright, i rendered another one while i was out at dinner. i tried to get the two spires to reflect off eachother, and im shure they did, but i cant see it! i will once again try to get the image to apear here, but ill probly end up posting a link.

or the link, if the image doesnt show up (agian) i heard something about a file server somewhere. where you you could upload a file regardless of size. where is that?

igor

heres another. if youve noticed, its just me playing around with how the TIN reflects on the spheres and the floor. i havnt made any changes to the scene.

igor

here is another, sorry if you dont like the blue tinting.

igor

shhh! im letting another one render during math class (its boring and i already know the stuff). just more reflective TINs. nothing special... almost

igor

ok, i lied. the render during math didnt turn out too well (the render didnt turn out well, everything else was fine). but ive go another baking right as i type. its nothing special, just me playing around w/ extremly high poly spheres. it almost crashed my computer! just one sphere has 5000 faces!

ps. can someone pleas reply? i mean, besides me. i would like some helpful critisism. plus no one has responded to this thread for a while besides me and possibly Remus. thanks!

solo

Oh sorry, I thought it rude to interrupt a man playing with his balls.

igor

oh, ha ha.
very funny.

and its not a ball its a sphere. see the difference?

*edit: here it is! (i know, not the cleanest render in terms of noisy-nes, but still good). ha ha! bryce came out backwards! lol

igor

here is another. i know, very basic shape that everyone has made like 5 times. but whatever.
my only complaint is that i couldnt find a way to smooth the edges, so i had to hide them instead, making a very blocky shading pattern. anyone know how to fix this?

Julius

nice renders!
i like the very first one, the car and the TIN.

igor

im glad you like them, julius. ive got another one going right now (im in study hall with nothing to do). its just more reflective TINs, but with intersections added in. ie: i used "intersect with ______" along with the TINs. it looks cool, trust me.

oh, and happy birthday to me! (it my birthday)

bubbalove

Happy B-day... you should try using bump maps on the floor!
