greetings,

Okay, don't ask why, but I felt compelled to make a viral spring rendering. ;D
Maybe because I have caught a cold??
ohhh ... nice!
Several viruses meeting up...and apparently not agreeing on the subject of the day (judging by their colors). ;D
Not for the faint of heart:
Two viruses making out in plain microscopic sight. Oh, behave... 8)
So cool !
It's a keeper !!!!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Tim
Even more funky than the previous renders ;)
Even better!

hey DriesV for me this one is wonderfull!!!i really like it good good job!
What setup and material did u use if we can know?
Regards
Thanks!
Tomorrow morning, I'll try to find a way to share a KeyShot package.
I hope I can get it small enough for distribution, as the current scene file is a whopping 1.4GB! (I imported with highest quality import settings to get the springs to look OK.)
Keep an eye on the Scene section of the Share boards tomorrow. ;)
ohhhh ... nice!
KeyShot package can be found here:

I wanted my funnel-shaped glycoproteins to look more organic.
So I applied a very deep, random banded normal map on them.

Sweet stuff. Thanks a bunch for sharing the model.
I love these images.

Way cool stuff... In the first image though, you can see segmentation in the geometry
My favourite is the last one - I love it that when they touch they illuminate

I know. I use SolidWorks for modeling. For the first models, I imported my models directly with highest quality settings (tesselation quality = 1). Even then, spring type models don't get silky smooth meshes. Thomas has pointed out elewhere on this forum that it is a characteristic of the current tesselator.
For the last 2 images, I used the SolidWorks plugin to transport the SolidWorks mesh into KeyShot. The result is a smoother and especially more consistent mesh.
