KayneG the model in your wire frame cant be mesh smoothed...
if it isn't try to change it, because its not very visible...

Bubbaloo · 10-07-2008, 01:08 AM

Here is my second entry. The render time is no mistake... Maxwell and slow computers don't mix...

KayneG · 10-07-2008, 01:22 AM

It's been a quite a while since I had the time to enter a challenge.

This one didn't come from any particular reference. I just kind of made it as I went along. The vase, however, looked a bit lonely just sitting by itself. I spent a while putting together a scene for it, but the actual vase is the only entry.

Info on the pic

Caluso : welcome to the forums

Bubbaloo · 10-07-2008, 03:26 AM

Trimyr, that's geat! What renderer?

h2k1 · 10-07-2008, 03:31 AM

Bubbaloo : hey ur portfolio is impressive!

Allegro · 10-07-2008, 03:36 AM

Here's a design I really liked when looking around on google images for ideas. I didn't realize that Aleg8r had already done it until just now! I must have missed page 3

The flower I downloaded from Turbosquid then used fbx to get it into Houdini. The vase itself done in Houdini in the described time.

Trimyr · 10-07-2008, 04:35 AM

Thanks for the compliments guys.

The lines going up are plain extrusions. I just selected one segment from every other vertical line around the edge, then pressed the 'loop' button under Edit Poly. The difficult part was deselecting all of the interior segments, since I had already added shell and twist modifiers (like I said, it really wasn't planned). I had to get the perspective view actually inside the vase to get rid of all of those interior edges, which is what turned a 5-6 minute model into 20. Once I was done with that, I chamfered segments and beveled the result.

As for the glass flower, that took long enough to render (some parts are about 4 layers of glass material). I really didn't want to put more glass inside the glass vase. It's only a two week competition.

Oh, and the scene was rendered with Brazil.

Woha! New faces, old faces

The SMC have never been this crowded

Fantastic stuff guys, really great ideas going!

DaddyDoom · 10-07-2008, 09:42 AM

Yeah... you're right...
Gonna try one longer submission

Yedan · 10-07-2008, 10:26 AM

think its prob becuase in general terms most vases are relatively simple items with little to no details basically a tube of glass or clay with some bulges and twists, when you start looking at the more complex shaped vases the details and shapes appear to be so much more complex that to model one in and hour is a very difficult thing to achieve and have it look right. so i guess most people will opt for the easier quicker route
