Playing with Wings3D for fun (Micheus)

Some meshes I have doing during the tests of my Curve Tool plugin.

Hello Micheus,

Your Curve tool is very impressive. Can you tell me when this plugin will be ready to use ?

I'm learning WING3D with your great videos.

Thank you for your support, Micheus

Best regards

I have been testing and working on it regularly for the last two months and I'm still finding some hidden bugs. The best way is using it - that is why I have been sharing some meshes I create using it.

So, I hope I can make it available soon, but I don't want it to be breaking the user's works easily after all this time I have coding it - we expect a little of stability.

Last week I read found an article talking about how wrong we use to "assemble" an glass of water object. I did the test and I like the result - the link for the article is here.

Yesterday, because of a tip from sciroccorics user in this post, I got back to this test object, improved a little the scene and found a good HDRI map to use:


Left the final objects/scene and right before export the POV-Ray file:


I tweaked the file to add some extra elements and build the table texture.

Really impressive rendering ! Far above what I am able to produce, so this is a great motivation for trying to learn more about rendering. Glad to see that the "triangulate" tip before POV export has some utility

Playing around with something for which Curve Tools plugin can make our lives easier: ribbon bow



After finished, I increased the sweep object's resolution and then I made it permanent:


The hard task was to create the textures for the ribbon:

How nice!
It is wonderful that the texture of each ribbons.
I found that the red ribbon only reflects light.

I started by wanting to use the Curve Tools plugin to build stitches and I ended up by making this pair of objects.

The problem working with textures to be seen in closeup is they requires more details and fine tune. I spent a lot of hours preparing all these maps - its therapeutic when its for fun.

The textures were created with Gimp.

Lately I have been using Wings3D as my CAD tool to prototype stuff to be used on my new apartment. The only I did it myself was the floor and the shelves. The other I sent the layout and measurements to the proper manufactures.
