Pipistrello lamp...

leminilab

Hi all... I just decided I would model the Pipistrello lamp :

The thing is I have no idea how to do that...
Well, I have made an attempt using Curviloft but it's so terrible I don't even wanna show it... The lampshade looks like a sick mushroom or something...

So if anyone can give me a hint on how to do that, it would be great !

Thanks a lot !

that seems pretty easy to model with the soap skin and bubble tool
http://www.tensile-structures.de just model the mesh and apply some bubble!

A lot easier: download the 3d model for free from here. (registration required)

Hi all,

Thanks a lot for your precious replies!

I ended up modelling a completely different (much easier ) Panthella lamp :

So since I very often feel gulty for my nearly void contribution to this community, here's the file in case someone might be in need of it for a quick immediate use.

It's not to scale, it's just the approximate shape of the lamp but it's there!
Again thanks a lot for everything!

P.S. to Shura : I need to find some time to upload this dancing people...
