Lately I’ve realized that I “suffer” from my own form of purist’s psychosis,
in that I confine my MOC’s to Mega-Bloks-only elements. Sure, some of the
parts that you see have LEGO analogs (the 2x4 brick, the 1x3 plate, etc.) but
the real-world equivalent of every virtual brick in these MOCs can be gleaned
from a Mega Bloks set (and in the represented colors, to boot!).
In making this realization, I’ve realized also that purists aren’t as nutty
as I used to think them to be: I find it quite inspiring to confine one’s
palette to a specific set of bricks and colors. It has nothing to do with
“brand purity” per se, but rather the desire to work from a seemingly more
restrictive platform.

You are becoming an artiste, Dave!

What I am wondering is this, Dave! Are you able to apply the settings of
someone who has rendered in POV-RAY to your own MOCs, such as these examples
below?
|
POV-Ray lighting is probably my biggest weakness in the rendering game. I
tried Jeroen’s radiosity settings but couldn’t tell heads from tails.
If some kind soul would care to point me to a set of ready-to-use radiosity
settings for the total simpleton, I’d be most appreciative.
|
I don’t know anything about the whole rendering thing, but I’m wondering if
this page may be
helpful.

Of course, I still believe that you’re a total slacker, and it’s really Ross
who does all the truly cool stuff. 8^)

Only my hairdresser knows for sure!

The two that you see here are POV-Ray's Gray95 and the default "floor" color from Lars Hassing's most excellent L3P program. All props to Lars, as always! (...) There are (...)
