 | | Drill and Hooklift Truck Renders —Jennifer Clark
|
| | | I've added a couple of new renders to my website, with much of the inspiration coming from fairly recent developments with radiosity mentioned in the lugnet.cad newsgroups. One is a render of the power drill featured on the cover of the "Lego (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build, lugnet.announce.moc) !!

| | | | | Those renders are awesome - at first I thought they were photos! It took me a while to examine the pictures before I could convince my eyes that they were renders. It took sometimes also before I realized the drill was made out of Lego bricks! The (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)

There is a very small amount of focal blur at the back of the truck, it isn't amazingly obvious but I think it (...) (22 years ago, 20-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)

It is funny how these things end up, I had 3 types of drills as inspiration for the model (...) (22 years ago, 20-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)
