Reasons....

kwistenbiebel

i can spot 2 reasons, are there more?

I am glad you noticed there are 2 reasons
And no , that's all.
(...unless you count the absence of a chain on the bike as n°3 )

Well I don't see cables going from the brake handles to the shoes. Maybe that is a reason why the front wheel is square.

That is so cool. I get the biggest kick out of this image. I see three reasons, wheel, no chain, and assuming this kid was tagging the wall, LOL.

I want to print this on nice glossy 24X36 and hang it up in my home office. I would love a higher res. I feel like I'm asking to much and should be dropping coin on this.

I love it!

kwistenbiebel

Thanks .

Spence, I pm'ed you the big one.

Great render.. I wish I had this kind of creativity!

kwistenbiebel

Thank you Tinanne,
You certainly don't lack creativity yourself looking at your images

Adding a second view.
I used a 'displacement map'(= a bump map that actually changes the 3D geometry of the object when rendering) for the pavement and wall tiling:

As a 'motivational poster':

If you guys want to use it to print as a poster for your students, feel free to download the big version here:

It would be great if some photos of the actual printed poster hanging in a school/office would be posted here.

Thanks Chris

My 13 x 19 priter ran out of color half way through printing (do not normally print color on it as it's used for printing out details, sections, plans and elevations for the trades)

However as soon as I get it printed I will take a snapshot of my boys bomb shelter / bedroom.

There is a market for these inspirational posters ....

Stinkie

Awesome renders, no question about it. Extremely well done, IMO.

kwistenbiebel

Cool .
I would feel honoured if this would be actually used.
It makes it worth doing renders.

I could not help but think of one of my favorite sites when I saw this...

boofredlay

I just stumbled across this today.

Chris,

I put up an 8.5 x 11 version on the door of our Tech Center. We have a 1-to-1 laptop program and this is where all the students come when they have problems with their computers so a lot of kids are going to see it.

You do not kid about the problems with computers, the one on the lower left does not even have a case, just slapped the entrails onto a project board...damn kids!!

sk.lion

Haha, that made me crack up, this is truly artwork, this is something that would look good framed and hanged.

Pete,

Some days... yesterday for instance... a 7th grader came in with a broken screen... roughly $700 to repair. She dropped the computer while putting stuff in her locker. It is why we have insurance.

We have some more of these "exploded" digital device boards in the office. One has my younger son's first iPod, ruined by spilt milk, which we, of course, have labeled "It doesn't do any good to cry over spilt milk."

...
That's really funny.
Sounds like the right place to have a motivational poster.

Thanks Fred.
