Description


This image was basically just an experiment with the Brazil renderer. I downloaded it this afternoon, and pretty much was stunned at the realism it can produce with just one light! So I had to do something with it, and here it is - poor little R2-D2 traversing the wastes of Tattooine once again. Some of you may recognise the R2-D2 model, it's been available at the SWMA for some time.. just to clear things up, yes, I am the original creator, I haven't just gone and done the lazy thing and rendered someone else's model :) Not much else to say about this one really.. background done with Terragen.. and that's it, I'll be quiet now :)

Excellent render. Love the terrain and the atmosphere you have created. Good modeling on the ard2 unit. Well done. ---- Scott.

R2 doesn't quite seem realistic against the background. don't get me wrong, it's almost perfect... but R2 seems more plastic than metal because of the lighting...

I agree with draculaz.

looks really great. and who says that the r2d2 unit is made from metal? maybe they use kevlar or some sort of plastic :-) even the gi artifacts look great on this image, they make the r2 looks dirty. but i have one question: the model on swma was imho made by Dr.Harry Chang and a reworked model was made by JosLuis Mart, but your name is Andreas Holz? thats a little confusing to me. no offense im just curious.

Spinoza - Harry Chang did the great little low poly R2, but I don't seem to recall one by JosLuis Mart.. if it's more detailed than mine then it looks like I've been replaced for a newer model, eh? Ah well. Thanks for the great comments people! :)

This is perfect! I am an AVID Star Wars buff (or fanatic, your choice) And this looks like its straight out of ILM's effects house

Where's the other sun?

malfunkshun - umm..er.. they're both so close together all you see is one big light blur ;)

Ok, it's always a pleasure to see work from a galaxy far far away... but i'm agree with malfunkshun, there's another sun, one is in terregen, but it's a wrong angle with your sun in max... anyway... wonderful work! :) Jose Luis

great job! I can almost hear r2's whistles and beeps! the idea for tracks is a great idea! you ought to place r2 in that canyon where the jawas cought him, and put in a few of their glowing eyes. You ought to show george lucas this! oh, also another idea: model some heads for the other r-series astrodroid, like r3 (more or less a clear plastic r2 head), r4 (the droid in the beginning of the original "starwars" with a cone shaped head,) and r5 (the "red" droid next to r2 in the original "starwars".) Keep up the great work, and may the force be with you!
