Follicle

I’ve been learning a program called “MathMod” which allows you to create crazy 3D shapes out of parametric code. I have a few irons in the fire right now in a similar vein, but this one should make for a nice introduction.

Sticking with the planetscape theme here. I wanted to see if I could use Oculus Medium to create icebergs. The planets are a mix of Vue rendered “planetary landscapes” (spherical terrains) and one that I created in Lightwave. I hope you enjoy it!

I’m still learning how to fit Oculus Medium into my workflow. One immediate application is creating different rock formations and this new render features several practice pieces. The landforms in the background were created using World Machine and the sky was created using Lightwave. I hope you enjoy it!

The Pillar

As some of you know Santa Claus brought me an Oculus Rift System for Christmas (I was a good boy last year). By far my favorite application for it so far is the VR sculpting program called Oculus Medium. I’ve been playing with it for the past few months and have used some bits of pieces of geometry in my renders so far.

This piece is my first where all of the geometry (except the water plane) was modeled using Medium. I expect it to be a major part of my toolbox going forward.

Where I live it seems like Winter has held on long past when it should have ended. It’s cold, the trees are still mostly bare and only a few tentative blooms have popped up here and there. You get a warm(ish) day and a few rays of sunlight, however, and life seems ready to burst forth. This piece is my expression of that hope.

On the technical side, I was excited to try out the new “flower” nodes available in Plant Factory. I used them for the tree blooms here and I think there are some exciting possiblities!! I hope you enjoy it!
