Really like your work here! I'll look forward to seeing it with the added details you mentioned.

Sounds like an interesting plug, especially if it can use a mesh for its form. If so, it might be a must have.

Very cool architectural concept and a great render! It reminds me of DNA strands.

I agree with you. The people I most admire are the ones who share credit where credit is due. Manners and politeness are either dead, or on life-support.

Really an impressive and beautiful piece! I really enjoyed your related tutorial. I may now have the courage to tackle a Turkish-style Victorian divan for an interior scene I'm working on.

Just wanted to say thank you very much for the outstanding tut! With the excellent illustrations and explanations I was able to follow along along and get very similar results, even with a very old( 0.99.04) version of Wings3D! The command names were different in Wings, but all the necessary functions were there, and I came out with a nice mesh with all quads.    I hadn't done any 3D modeling for quite some time, but your tut has helped inspire me to break through a creative block, and even more has given me lots of other ideas to pursue based on this method. Thanks again.

 

Thank you! I have a student version of Adobe Photoshop 7 from ten years ago when I took a community college Photoshop course, and still use it, but this is two versions better!

Also consider that you can make a very effective "splash" by using a Bryce tree. You make the trunk transparent and change the leaves to a appropriate material. You might want to try some of the cloud mats, or mix your own. This also works well for flocks of birds, or bats if you change the leaf map.

Thanks very much!

Great news!
