I recently rendered a few scenes of the 2x4 brick in Bryce 4. The brick
model is original and accurately proportioned. Although I did leave out
a few miniscule details of the modern 2x4 brick, nothing larger than
.1mm was omitted. The bricks in all of the scenes are rendered
translucently to reveal more detail of the model. You can view the
scenes at:

The images are all 1024x768 pixels, and range from about 70-100K in size.

VERY cool. I don't suppose you'd consider redoing them with a black background? ;-) It would take a bit of work choosing the right colors to still have all the details, but I HATE white backgrounds on my desktop ;-) (...) ***(URL) Visual FAQ home (...)

(...) I think that what you have done is just plain jaw-dropping *cool*, Micah! You folks who render LEGO in CAD are doing the neatest things! I am so not computer-savvy and am greatly impressed with the images which can be generated. Although (...) (24 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.general)

Thanks for all the great comments (in both discussion and private email). I had not anticipated such a positive response. I've set up a thumbnail index for the scenes, which I will upload via ftp after I finish rendering my latest scene, a single (...) (24 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.general)
  Re: 2x4 Brick Renders
 
(...) Wow! Very cool. :) One detail you did leave out, although I haven't measure its size, is the rounded edges of the bricks (studs should be even more rounded than the rest of the brick). It's a pain to add, but it would add a lot to the (...) (24 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
