Render #22 (animation test bottom page 8)
-
#22? i think you mean 220...haha..... looks awesome. is this Fry?
-
love the form
...could you tell us was it difficult to extrude window frames on curved surfaces. I guess surface tools and new JV push -pull was used. -
I assume that you're right, Sepo...
But the texture job is really good as well..!!
Care to share how you did this, Chris..??
-
Thank you guys

Indeed, the "surface tools" and "joint-push-pull" tools were used here to make those windows.
And off course 'subsmooth' (though I think it should have had one iteration more).@Frederick,
I just used the 'projected' method. It stretches the texture but it was not so disturbing this time. It depends from which angle you project the texture I guess. -
A quickie (noisy) using only background light (white):

-
how did you get such beautiful wood paneling? i mean in terms of projecting it onto the building (a really good building btw). did you project it at an angle (set up a face at a 45 degree angle instead of flat front or back)? like this:
../ __________
./ |.building.|
/ .|________|the three slashes on the left = face from witch the texture is projected
box = you guessed it, is the building.
little tiny dots = nothing, just ignore them.am i right?
-
hey kwist, this is another fabulous render and concept. is this Biebel's ark or tower of Biebel?

-
Thanks Nomer ...An Ark, didn't think about that

I re-rendered the last view using Physical sky. (Indigo render)
The subtle glare is added 'internally' in the Violet tonemapper.
The glass should have had a little less roughness...To view full size: (Firefox:right click- view image) (IExplorer:right click - image save as)

Thank you Fred and Igor.
@Igor: You are correct. I projected the image almost perpendicular to the 'corner' of the building (as in your scheme).
I must admit the projecting is view dependant. Choose another viewpoint and the projecting needs to be redone. -
Thanks for the answer regarding the texturing, Chris..!!

It looks as 3D trees... Xfrog..??

And the people in the scene...
These are for sure some really excellent reders..!!

-
Gracias senor Frederico

The trees are Xfrog, the people Axyz as they look ok seen from a distance.
When in close-up, the Axyz guys look a bit like melted E.T.'s though
-
Chris, Nice work. I like where these seem to be heading. Zaha watch out indeed. Fred

Some more:
Ouch....distorted texture alert

Is it for the fun or for real or hypothetic project

Is it the new Noe's Arche?
-
Well this one is for sport ...
I was thinking that modeling something realistic (I know it is not though ) was a good way to get to know the new organic rubies and to practice them.
Besides, I consider it also a bit as portfolio filling ...Play becomes work becomes play
-
Wonderful work Chris, as usual. I really enjoyed "exploring" from you different views!
-
Chris, Great work, thanks for sharing.

-
That last one looks like a giant 70s spaceship just landed in someones back garen during a bbq (and no one noticed.)
-
Thank you Tinanne and Mateo,
Let me finish with the same view but different material use. Quite a different appeal:To view full size: (Firefox:right click- view image) (IExplorer:right click - image save as)
