Fantastic stuff!
Got the blackout as well though...
Now this is really useful information, thank you Aerilius!
Your effort is highly appreciated, I have really learned something here.
cheers

Something like this maybe?

Well, it can be a funny feeling sitting on an electric chair.
(But of course, the model is definitely superb)
thank you Gaieus.
luckily the trend with illuminated furniture has kind of passed, although in showbiz they make good tool sometimes.
oh, bzzzzt...
Thank you James.
I actually just picked a chair that I knew wasn't too difficult to model. I bet there'll be more challenging stuff like "Model This" threads coming soon. I just like this new subforum on organic modeling.
cheers

Funny, I have been playing with something similar tonight. There is a plugin called Qhull. You might find this interesting to generate random cell structure.

I tried to combine Qhulls' Voronoi with Lattice Maker and Artisan. It got kind of messy, but at least it looks organic.
Hi,
Here is a model of a chair to share with you. Found it in a design book, hope you like it. Kazuhiro Yamanaka made this swivel chair called "How slow the wind". There is a version with textile covering and also one with lighting inside the seat.
I put it here to show the modelling with Artisan (can be made with SDS1 as well).
1 proxy
2 subdivided (3 iterations)
3 details added (nails, thickness with Projections Extrude Lines Along Vector, piping with Tube Along Path)
4 textured (UV Toolkit2)
Bom. Solid. Great!

This is good news, thank you Mike!
Wow, a free version for Pro users is coming, I really like the news.
Good luck to you Brian and your team!
Thank you guys, good to have you alongside. It is just that with all text codes/scripts I'm a total noob.
I am trying to use the IES files provided by Martin Lighting at http://www.martin.com/productgroup/productgroup.asp?pg=martinlight
What is clear now is that the IES data is simply incomplete. The entire values for candela distribution is on zero.
Looks like I have to send a request to Martin directly.
Althoug I got one file from the architectural fixures to work, none of the headmoving fixtures seem to work...
.....get back later, have an appointment

Thanks for the reply Sir,
i thought of that too, but I did not dare to take that road yet, because I have like a hundred light fixtures to mount.
Just now I thought it could be possible to find the error by reproducing only a few... Ill have to look into that.
btw, the files from IESgenerator do mot render in Twilight, but General Electrics has a good free application that works for me.
thanks again

Hi folks,
Not very long ago I read a post from someone who didn't get his IES data to work. Sadly I don't even remember which renderer he used.
He solved the problem himself by editing the IES file.
Obviously I am in the same need now, but I can't for the life of me remember where I read it.
So far I searched SCF (also Vray sub), Twilight and Thea Forum until I got a bit dizzy.
Maybe someone has a better memory than mine, or even knows how to find mistakes in IES codes...
...thanks in advance
alex
Yes.
But have a FerrariColors folder with lots of Skm inside next to it, what is that good for?
...
Great improvement. Had the chance to test it on quite a few 3DS imports - works great and through the new UI has a much better access to all the functions (before I hardly ever used them). Can't thank you enough Thomthom!

You should have a look at the SU Artists site, I am sure there is someting you find useful:
http://www.sketchupartists.org/
How about downloading an interior at 3D warehouse and testing the styles you can get from SU Artists on it.
I bet you are going to have fun with this...
Really cool renders here guys!
My attempt is rather lame compared with yours, but I thought it was fun rendering in SU only.
Looks a bit like it was taken from a storyboard sketch.
Used Simple Rays for the room and Color by Z for heli and person, no postpro of any sort.
