Wow those look amazing. I'ma getting Solidworks and maxwell reneder soon, hopefully I can produce the same results.
Wow guys. Stunning work. Really need to get my rear end in gear and start rendering all the stuff I make. Need to get to grips with Kerkythea. All other stuff made in Rhino 3d 4.0. So expect some renders some time.
I can't get Bevel Mapping to work in Kerkythea. It doesn't matter setting i put it on, it never does anything. Even if i stick it up to 7.00, it doesn't do anything in the slightest. I followed the tutorial on the website, but it doesn't do it. Anyone got any ideas?
Bevel mapping in KT is more like a specular map on just the corners edge to make the edge appear more rounded (light reflecting off the corner at the angle you set it), it will not physically change the model to make this happen, modelled corners/bevels are always more effective and more accurate. If your camera is at the wrong angle to the edge where you set it in accordance to the lights you may not even see this effect, as it rely's on the right reflective angle for the specular to be visible...
Cronicash: Nice job, but wouldn't the reservoir still leak since the bolts are inside the groove the oring sits in? It seems the water would leak from the bolts first before being stopped by the oring...
Yeah probably... I only spent half an hour on modeling and texturing anyways. Cheers and likewise....
only started this CAD model yesterday afternoon, but it was a dirty mock up for a conceptual front panel I am considering for my project log (link in sig). EDIT UPDATE another render. Solidworks 2010 and photoworks 360 2010
I love this thread. I'm thinking of taking CAD/CAM classes in Univ. (Yes, I know it's a wonder a bit-techer at univ hasn't already done the needful, but I'm slow ) Lenne, I thought I'd commented on that render you posted but I guess I didn't Looks great. How long did it take? And was it done with KT? Also, the furniture designs are STUNNING! My mum's totally fallen for the armoire and sideboard.
Thx, i actually build the sideboard http://lenne0815.deviantart.com/art/My-apprentice-piece-157371166 all renders are 3dsmax / maxwell render.
It was 120 hrs hard and as it seems i lost build pics of it, i took some but dunno where they are now
