This was done for the lead review of <a href="http://www.e-onsoftware.com/products/vue/vue_6_infinite/?page=0">Vue 6 Infinite</a>. Vue is an incredible tool for generating photo-real landscapes (most of the coastline work in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0383574/"><span style="font-style:italic;">Pirates of the Caribbean</span></a> was done using it). However, it's a great tool for easily setting up Global illumination and radiosity renders, since it comes with so many presets. <br> <br> I'm quite pleased with the way this one came out.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37738464-7199511102394101417?l=vizarch5.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tim Danaherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03089259720924110890noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37738464.post-14174902708610884882007-03-13T14:02:00.000Z2007-03-17T08:58:37.808Z<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/9460/olympicvelodromeillo3bliy6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/9460/olympicvelodromeillo3bliy6.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> An illustration for a <a href="http://www.macuser.co.uk">Review of SketchUp Pro 6</a> that I wrote (you'll have to search using the above link.)

The idea was to use SketchUp only for this (although a bit of Photoshop was necessary), and to give a feeling of 'hand-drawn complexity'.

I built this to illustrate a talk that I gave on metanurbs modelling. Modelling, texturing and rendering done in LightWave 5.5. Texture maps painted in Photoshop 5.0 (I think...it was a long time ago) <br> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3645/arachnid14bloggercp5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3645/arachnid14bloggercp5.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> Another view...Interestingly, this was done entirely using Planar Texture mapping – LightWave didn't support UV mapping at the time. The eagle-eyed amongst you will no doubt see the joins. I always promised myself that I'd re-visit this one day and do it properly...but no.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37738464-116414326517122005?l=vizarch5.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tim Danaherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03089259720924110890noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37738464.post-1164142290010684892006-11-21T20:48:00.000Z2006-11-22T08:02:45.203Z<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img453.imageshack.us/img453/9967/architecturebloggervv2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img453.imageshack.us/img453/9967/architecturebloggervv2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> An image done to illustrate an article that I wrote about using the Mac Platform for architecture.
