I'm always looking for daft stuff.  TrekkieGrrrl ver generously made me some onions a while ago, then, some time after, I was looking for a bear trap, which I found at DAZ. Odeath of Life kindly made me an Anglepoise Lamp.

Now, I need a plate of ravioli.  Honest, I really do.  It would be great if the ravioli was in individual bits so I can scatter it around..  No doubt I can always add some kind of sauce in postwork.

Some fried eggs would be great, too.  Preferably morphable, so they will stretch.

I'm really not kidding about these, I really need 'em.

TIA

Actually, the eggs don't really have to be morphable.  I can always use magnets on the little buggers.

Although, now I come to think of it, conforming fried eggs would be excellent.

Yes, I have taken my meds today, thank you. :)

What were you thinking they'd conform to? :blink:

Lordy!!!

The lightwave content CD includes a fried egg, and I think there's one in the Epic model collection (but I'm not sure)

Well, I'd like them to conform to the top of someone's head.  But that's just for joke purposes.  I'll check out Gerald's site, though.

Any ideas on Ravioli?

:blink: You want eggs with little buggers? :blink:

I can always model a plate of ravioli, it would be kind of fun... but the BIG question is how soon do you need them? Things are pretty behind on my end right now. How detailed do they need to be?

Aren't they like little double sided rectangles with a puffed up middle and little indentations all around the perimeter??

Conniekat - Many thanks.  I'm not in a particular hurry.  Any time in the next 15 seconds would be great.  But seriously, whenever they are ready is just dandy.

Karen - I'll pass on the Max thing, but thank you anyhow.

RAMWolff - Yep, you got it right.

yes they are!  And whaddayou know, the actually have them on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravioli
that cracks me up.

15 seconds? :blink:  I suppose you like your pasta AlDente!
Any particular 'look' you're going for? Like, nicely garnished restaurant plate, or home cooked style?

Sam.. why not try your hand loading in a square prop, and using the morph tool to make a raviloi?

I thought a ludercrous request was for the fully rigged cashew I did over at rawart last year for someone.. LOL!

Paul, you scare me sometimes,  LOL

It's not ravioli, but it's food:

Great idea Garee.  Shame they don't have the morph tool in P6.  Guess I could try a magnet, though.

By the way, before you all get worried, the eggs and the ravioli are for two different pics.  See, I haven't lost my mind.

Do you have a square, flat-ish pillow prop somewhere you could scale down and stick a displacement map on for the raviolis?

Or how about texturing a morphable pillow? I know there are some of those around.

Great ideas, people.  I'm experimenting with the Cloth Plane and magnets right now.  If that doesn't work to my satisfaction I'll look into your suggestions.

BTW Acadia, my cat cannot stand catnip.

Quote - Would this simple round one work for you?

Not as ravioli but it's a good basis for a fried egg.

have you got vue? 'cause i reackon it could be done with the metablobs, and i already know that you can make fried eggs with it too.

Fried egg in 3ds:

Vince3 - nope, don't have it. 

bjt - Groovy! Many thanks!

I still may have a go at making one in Poser, just for the giggle factor.

The Bryce 4 legacy presets (included with bryce 4, 5 and 6) includes a fried egg which is exportable. It's made from a terrain.

sausage, egg and beans!!

though the egg does appear to have a beak and legs growing out of its yolk, but to make up for that there is a special guest appearance by the original Grange Hill sausage..........at least i think it is a sausage!!!

and we were out of ravioli.

that 3DS egg is awesome, excellent model!!!

vince3 - please tell me how to get sprayed beer out of my monitor.

Repeat to yourself: "It is unsporting to make someone laugh when they are drinking beer and sitting at their computer". :)

dunno if this is what you want but it couldn't hurt

Thanks, musicat.

Christ, I'm hungry now!

hmmm... fried egg and a turd... sounds yummy

A warning; it's big (80K polys) and the UV mapping is strange. If you want it, though... feel free.

Not that she can't stand catnip. She probably doesn't have the "catnip gene".  I was amazed to find out that their reaction to catnip is wholey dependant on them having a specific gene. WIthout it, a cat has no reaction to catnip at all.  I also learned that a cat born in Asia will rarely react to Catnip.

He.  Don't give the guy a complex. :)

Thanks everyone.  I'm all ravioli'd out now and I have eggs coming out of my ears.  Gonna play with this stuff and see what I can come up with.

Did you see steerpike's ravioli download for you? It's a zip file.

Thanks, Steerpike.

Mmmm, that looks yummy!!

Packled, that's one smooth looking ravioli! Yummy!

Yeah I thought you were hungry that's why you started this thread...  It's a good thing - loads of interesting links !  : )

tomato sauce you'll have to model yourself...;)

I think I can manage the tomato sauce, thanks. :)
