Cool pictures. I know God used a fractal generator. So maybe he used booleans too. Maybe he used Bryce and that's why it took 6 days to render the universe. Carrara would have taken a few hours.

Fantastic pics!
LOL @ drawbridge!
Pet peeve, eh???

My New Year's Resolution was to not bash Bryce. That lasted 8 hours and 52 minutes.
My other resolution was to eat healthy, but I had a cinnamon roll for breakfast. That resolution lasted 8 hours 24 minutes.

LOL!
That's why I never do resolutions! ;-D

LOL.. trust you guys to make the first post of the year really fun. Phil.. ahem.. follow this rule... your new year resolution is to not make resolutions.! :-p poor bryce.. you bashing it in less than 9 hours into the new year. At least.. you do have to be grateful for it letting you do some really good renders.. :tongue1:
I read that bit a few days ago about nature being full of fractals.. really interesting. but this boolean bit sort of hit me when I saw these pix.
Chris.. hmm.. dark matter, eh? wonder if we could do that instead of negating.
Quest.. yup..you the 2nd..and why were you on rendo so early after your ny?? I had come home from a party at 4, fell asleep at 5ish..woke up at 7ish..stoopid body clock... sat infront of my news feeds with bleary eyes.. (result of 3 large wine glasses only..), saw the pix..got hit on the head with a hammer.. by God..i think.. so i put the link up here. ran around sorting out the house .. and not sleeping tonite since flight timings delayed..arrival of my absolutely nutty family delayed by two hours.. till..maybe 12 midnite. Can't sleep for fear I'll miss picking them up... and too tired to bryce..
And why is my font size changing????

Nah..I reckon he used the terrain lab - imported a snowflake image and used it to create them :biggrin:
Seriously though, great link, thanks for sharing it.

Very cool pictures Rosie.

I always loved natures designs.... I made a resolutin to not ever make one and has lasted for years... So has my weight and some character defects.... ;)

God must be the ultimate Brycer.
Just rendering the room I'm sitting in now with simple polygons would choke my machine's memory. The computer I'm typing on has a smooth monitor, but it still would take10-20gb just to model the surfaces. The dust on the screen is composed of thousands of pieces per square mm. It's made of skin, cat hair, and beautiful pollen grains much like your snowflakes. There are probably a few hundred million of these covering the entire monitor. Each individual sunburst of pollen contains the DNA to make it's parent plant fabricated out of millions of atoms. The atoms in turn a built of combinations of hundreds of different protons neutrons and electrons. All these are in turn made from different species of quarks. It's assumed that all electrons, neutrons, etc. are the same but I always wondered; We look at dust and see thousands of species. If we were on the scale of dust would we see thousands of species of electrons instead of one?
Say you wanted to model an object in a version of Uber Bryce from the atoms up. It would probably take all the memory in all the computers on the planet. It would take every programmer on earth their entire lifetime just to build the monitor on my desk. Now compare the 1 cubic foot my monitor takes up by the 14billion years at the speed of light hubble has been able to see out into the universe. The numbers get so big you could start typing 1, 000, 000, 000, 000, ..... from now till you die and still never reach it.
How many different snowflakes are there? How many grains of sand? I could spend my whole life trying to form the thought and still fall short. Eventually reason has to step out and faith step in.

Fascinating, I love how the big blocky one looks like something off a bridge that's been underwater for years and coral has been growing on it, but there's no light down there to photograph it in anything but Black N White....
To me the rest just look like partially melted ice-cream. Lol!

Of course God used booleens, and is a Brycer. That is why we call Bryce's number one champion in here THE CARDINAL.
That should keep me out of the Comfy chair until .... January 5????

God uses Bryce? If he does he has the sky lab nailed down pat.
erosiaart posted Sat, 08 January 2011 at 11:29 PM
did he ever think of a faster render time and no crashes though? :-p
FranOnTheEdge posted Sun, 09 January 2011 at 5:12 PM
I think it's still rendering... it's certainly not finished yet.
Say, take a look out of the window some time and lets all see who's first to spot the render line... :laugh:

Isn't the render line what we call the horizon?
