    ..more wacky caped bots...

    Even after the third centenary of Strepto-E436, a global pandemic which resulted in the final eradication of human kind, these faithful Carebots keep up the desperate search to inoculate any who might have escaped; there were none. Still they executed this irresistible drive and faithfully followed the cold sequence of binary commands imprinted on their internal circuit boards; mankind's remaining legacy! 

    Bravo!!!

    Just a short note:

    A few more experiments... (These render very quickly - there are no complicated SSS or Transparency calculations just good ol' colour and IOR)

    A quick variation in the colour channels...

    model based on Billy Meier's Wedding Cake UFO

    how wacky is this..... never heard of Billy Meier I hear you say?

    well, neither did I till the other day ... he's a dude from Switzerland and is the founder of a UFO religion called the "Freie Interessengemeinschaft für Grenz- und Geisteswissenschaften und Ufologiestudien" and alleged contactee whose UFO photographs are claimed to show alien spacecraft.

    I have no idea what Freie Interessengemeinschaft für Grenz- und Geisteswissenschaften und Ufologiestudien means!!

    but it must be wacky!!

    Stezza,

    I ran Freie Interessengemeinschaft für Grenz- und Geisteswissenschaften und Ufologiestudien through Google translate and it came up with "Free interest group for border sciences and humanities and ufology studies". I also looked up ufology, the study of unidentified flying objects.

    I seen a UFO once.. scared the cr@p out of me!

    was sitting at dining room table on a cloudless sunny day when this huge shadow came over the house, I looked out the back door and just above the back of the house was this huge red thing!

    It did spook me... I went outside for a better look at this silent flyer .... that's when I realised it was the GoodYear Blimp... oh well....

    couldn't believe how low it was... surprise

    that thing hovered over my backyard for a while during the Clipsal 500 race weekend and I resisted the urge to sunbathe

    Nice blimp!

    It reminded me of the first (or second) render I ever posted to the forum:

     

    Pretty basic, I know. :)  Used native content.

    ...more boned simple shapes

    Procedural shader fixed with "Procedural Lock" Great little gem by DCG... Note how curve filter is used to repeat the gradient on the cylinder 'ribs.'
