My mate Angel (mod from over at level-1.org.uk) requested a new background for her computer. She wanted it to be blue and at 1024×768 pixels, so i rose to the challenge.

For this one the mesh started off as a 32 segment uv sphere, i then grabbed several clustered faces on different points of the sphere and pulled them about a bit using the grab tool. After that i selected several parts of the faces i had just grabbed and applied a spin funtcion, this resulted in the zig-zag pattern that can be seen. The material is blue with a very slight reflection map applied. I also used a black shadless plane mesh sitting behind the blue object for the background.

This image was done in blender 3d in october 2007. It started off as a simple object mesh like a cube. I then subdivided the cube polygons several times over to give the cube more complextity. I then applied a sculpt function to distort the mesh into a more complex and abstract shape, finally setting it to a simple one colour wireframe material. It is lit by a simple area light with a simple shadeless plane mesh sitting behind the object so that it does not cast shadows.

Dj Clinton from http://www.hardcoreremorse.co.nr asked me to produce a web advert for his new hardcore music cd album.

For this image i used a 12 edge 2d circle. Then i removed one of the faces of the circle so that the mesh had a gap in it. Then, extruding the edges to make faces and extruding again upward so that the object became three dimensional.

Duplicating the shape, I then rotated it on the x axis, repeating these steps till I had loads of them facing in different ways along the x axis. Then finally grouping them all together so that adding materials would be a lot easier.

I then added the text, a black shadless cube as the boundary, a high intensity volumetric spotlight and an area light.
