        dear Fred,

        just to give you bit of a sweetener, why rendering your wonderful sculptures would be a great idea...

        http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/5556/im1214813091rf9.png

        (after applying Subdivide & Smooth to your proxy (two iterations) I loaded a frosted glass material, and changed it's colour to have three different tones - all that took me about 3 minutes. I pressed the render button and left it simmer for a while...)

        see, what great render potential sleeps in your work? 😆

          Jakob,

          Thanks so much for taking the time and effort to render this! It is awakening my eyes to the sweet possibilities.

          With much appreciation.

          Fred

            Man. . .this is amazing stuff. Did you just make the model by using the PP in any direction ruby and then SubSmooth?

            Awesome.

            If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                You guys keep going at this and you'll put Dale Chiluly out of work. 😉 Or maybe you could sell him your designs.

                Cool stuff.

                  LOL.

                    Pete,

                    Those are very cool. The first one looks a bit like an explosion involving the liquid metal terminator (T2) and the condiment section of a hot dog stand. The second one is enchantingly beautiful. Wow! Thanks for sharing.

                    Re David_H's question. The model was made with standard SketchUp tools except SdS.

                    Fred

                      thanks. I am going to play around with it aswell. See If I can't some of these "Dali-esque" Intestinal images that you guys have succeeded with!

                      😳 There's good English!

                        I LOVE it!

                        which renderer did you use (surely not the new (unstable) indigo with displacement)?

                        @Fred
                        it seems you don't have to start rendering after all. just post your models and you will get a lot of nice images, without twitching a muscle... 😄

                        it is really fun to have a go with your sculptures. thank you very much again for sharing!

                          I used Vue 6 Xstream.

                            nice. I like this oily, reflective texture.
                            is that an image or procedural? looks like the latter to me. really nice indeed.
                            which engine did you use, GreyHead?

                              Wooaaaah...😄 this is great .
                              Fred, your form explorations seem to inspire people.

                              I love both the native SU output as some of the renderings.

                              @plot-paris: Jakob, that last proxied/instanced one 😲 ! Terrific.
                              It's Jackson Pollock in 3D.

                              @Fred: Have you tried Cheetah on the Mac for rendering? It's not the most photoreal engine, but it seems to work quite well.

                                Here's an amphibious version, undercooked I'm afraid as I had to do a restart 😞

                                  @plot-paris: It's a Kerkythea render and the 'metal' is a multi-layered 'Ashikhmin' material by Patrick Nieborg (I think) - not a procedural - the four layers have different rotations.

                                      I'm just sitting on the beach and enjoying the show. 😄
