Into the sunset 

- I’ve rendered this landscape in Carrara, using realistic sky options to bring in the sun. The boat was built in Hexagon.

Some falling cubes in front of flowers - made using Bullet Physics in Poser.

This was a test to see which figure mix I preferred: based on Stephanie 5, the choices were either adding 20% Jasmine or 25% Amy (both by 3D Universe). Switch between the images to see the subtle differences.

A coffee cup, modelled and rendered in Carrara.

I made a wine glass in Carrara's spline modeller and tried to render it in a nice light. I discovered the presets that Carrara offers in the pack shot category. Accidentally the stem ended up underneath the water surface.

Some books I’ve modelled in Hexagon.

Urban Sprawl Sketch Renders, done in Carrara using the non-photorealistic render option with a few tweaks applied.

I was following a tutorial that came as part of the Hexagon manual. This is my second attempt at vertex modelling a creature from a cube. It's amazing how powerful dynamic extrusions are, and what you can do with the tweak tool.

The Sketch Render option in Carrara can produce marvellous designs. I was wondering what an animation with this option would look like - so I’ve made one: Stonemason’s Urban Sprawl, rigged with a motion path on which the camera glides through the streets.

I must admit I wasn’t that impressed: this looks much better for still images, besides there was a bit of rendering trouble here and there. Here’s the same scene, rendered in photorealistic mode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UR75KKgkFME

I was experimenting with the dynamic hair feature in Carrara: this hairy blue ball rendered for several days on an old laptop, but the results are rather nice.

I’ve animated the DAZ M4 skeleton with a few aniblocks, then I’ve draped a sheet over him in Marvelous Designer. To finish it off I added some spooky fog in Carrara. 

The whole process is explained here: http://www.versluis.com/2015/04/skeleton-at-the-graveyard/

This was my first ever keyframe animation in Blender. Look at that cube go!

My second attempt at modelling in Blender: a coffee cup with a funky handle.
