[Kotayus]

More Clickeh (http://home.earthlink.net/~egstudios/images/fantasia2.jpg) :applause:

Oh my appologies, there is post work, the text...but thats all.

[That Adrian Guy]

Thats neat.

Can you post a wireframe?

[Kotayus]

um...a wire as the viewport mode? or an actual wire model? cause i tried to use tessa, and it didnt wanna wire very much.

[Caravaggio]

cool, I like it when abstract actually looks like something, in this case some kind of flower.

Don't know about the text though.

[Per-Anders]

ooh, very nice. how did you achieve that effect? (how much of it's photoshop work?)

[Kotayus]

well the shape itself is a cumpled sphere, then extruded then hyper nurbed. There are 2 omnis both white, and the matierial is what makes it flashy, although its simple its effective. The "airbrushed" look as ive been told is volumetric lights in a emitter, with a reddish color, close to the shapes mat. I have a sky with stars and thats it...threw some text, the lens flare and the grid thing in...but the shape, airbrush effect and lighting is all c4d. The asthetics of space, like i said such as the lens flare is PS, but thats all.

I need knowledge, Explain. Spliner? what is that, and what does it do? example?

[Kotayus]

for some reason, i think of something like this:

[flingster]

i'm sorry i mean't diShaper....Ooops....:wip:
but n matter you can use displinegen in sweepnurbs to good effect...sorry about...poor image compression but you get the idea.
image 1 is splinegen.
image 2 shaper more in same vein

[flingster]

image 2.

[Kotayus]

i like the second one, more my style...could you send me the file? i would love to work with that.

[flingster]

okay...but understand it is a messy experiment...ignore the second dicloner-light.
basically...discs x4 as far as i can remember...twisted, bend x 2, in nurbs..and two dshapers...i was tinkering...what can i say i got carried away...disable the deformers to see what i mean.:wip:

email me your address..see my sig...and i'll send it....tomorrow.:thumbsup:

[Kotayus]

great, i mailed you. I tried myself, but i dont know where to put dishaper i guess...seeing it will be a great help! thanks.

[KINGOFPAIN]

heresONE (http://www.angelfire.com/dc/kingofpain2/111_copy.jpg) i did in C4D and finihed it up in PS7

[flingster]

its in transit...
goes like this for anyone who is interested.
nurb
------->twist
--------------->4/5 x discs (any object)
------------------------>bend x2
----------------------------->dishaper x 2
basically the nurb-object-dishaper order is important...the rest i leave up to you.:wavey:

[flingster]

KINGOFPAIN : very nice...:thumbsup:

[Kotayus]

yes, very cool
