Here's my most recent picture.  The car is made mostly of blobs (big
surprise).  I can't write much now, so ask anything that comes to mind!

Very cool car, and render too!  The photograph appearance bothers my eyes but
it's a great effect.  Guess that would be beyond a sunroof or moon roof... a sky
roof?  What dealership has those?  I want one now.

How do you do that with blobs? I just don't get it. Send me your source now.

The car I could tell was cgi. It is real good, I love it, I wanted
to see it with the door open. But because I have never seen any car
like that, I _knew_ that it had to be cgi.
The parking lot, on the other hand, I had to check two or three
times to be sure it wasn't a photo. I am impressed.

Wow,
This is maybe my favorite image of yours. I love the sci-fi / futuristic
style. You have an amazing command of the blob object, you should write a
tutorial. Great attention to detail. I'd love to see this model from other
angles. Door open would be cool. Keep posting.

This image has a great "dirty" look to it, and those little details 
which make it look a lot more realistic. The banged up post in the 
foreground seems odd though, is that pixellation on it? It also looks 
slightly transparent at one point, where the white line on the ground 
intersects it.

Also, the reflection in the windshield shows orange clouds, like one 
would expect from late afternoon, as the sun is setting. But the 
lighting looks like it is early afternoon...is it just a colored 
reflection from the tinted glass?

I've seen many of H.E. Day's images and animations.  All are very good
subjects.  What comes to mind is, who are you?  What do you do?  Are you a
student, professional animator, retired?  I'm only curious because the
images stand out from the rest.

Needless to say. You sure do know you're way in the 3D graphics :P
What is it I haven't figured out about blobs? I mean I can do a smiley face

Damn you're good with that blob stuff!
Do you have a special way of going about modelling these things?
The concrete/pavement textures are quite realistic.
Please refrain from posting any more photographs here ;-)

Door doesn't open. It's just a bump_map.  I suppose I could do opening doors,

Hey, don't forget me! I am also 17. :-)
I don't do much "art" though, mostly I play around with adding features

Well, as a fellow 17-year-old high school student, this will be my first and
last post to this thread since for now on I am now going to have to hang my
head in shame for the rest of my life.  I've been working with POV for
almost a year and I can't begin to fathom how you constructed such a
magnificent model...and with blobs!  If you say you hand-coded the entire
file I'm going to have to shoot myself;)

I wonder what breed of images you could make with a professional package
like 3DS or Lightwave?

 Keep up the good work,

It is not the package, it's the person. Good
training helps, patience help, understanding helps.
I could have all that and a bag of chips and not be

Quite right.  I personally believe that Pov-Ray (in the MegaPatch form) is better
than most modeling/animation packages.  Most of the stuff I see done with
Truespace, LW or 3DS is crap.  There are many exceptions, http://www.raph.com/
being a good place to start.

And do a good job at that. By the way, how's the patina pattern coming
along, and could you use a method 2 type of sampling??

Nope, no transparency, just coincidence.  Isosurface can be strange animals.

No, that's the cloud colors.  The coloring looks fine to me.  Maybe it's my

I for one would be very interested in seeing the tutorial once you have
finished it.
Your work is some of the best I've seen, in any package and if I could learn
a bit and get that much closer to your level, I'd be all the better for it.

I'd say that POV isn't a commercial package but I'd also
say that it is a professional package.  The scene discription
language is powerful and for this reason POV can probably 
achieve some effects that wouldn't be possible in products
such as 3DS.  

This powerful tool in the hands of someone like HE Day is 
pure dynamite.

He said the car was modeled with blobs. Which means he coded it by hand, not a
modeler. Though I have to say my first impressions was that is was made in a GUI
modeler too!

Nope. 100% pure Pov-Ray.  Mega-Patch, that is... anyway I consider Megapatch
to be PovRay 5 :)

Hey! I just turned 18 on the 5th, so I'm in your age group too. I think Rune
is also more or less our age.

*I* probably sound very, very, young to you, Ken.  And I'm starting

I remember feeling old for the first time when the person who
won Wimbledon was younger than me (Boris Becker .de) and as ken
says, this thread makes me feel really old, these guys were only
just being born when I left school.  What's worse is that even
after all my terchiary (sp?) and university education and 
experience (8 years in industry), they all know more about 
computers than me.

There are several free modellers for the Mac, some specifically for 
blobs. Check out Jam and Blob Sculptor. There is a list at 
mac.povray.org, as I remember.

I haven't done much work on it lately, but I have a few ideas that will 
speed it up by a large amount in certain situations. And it's sampling 
method isn't really comparable to media, it is actually more like 
radiosity or blurred reflection, so a "method 2" isn't really possible. 
There will be alternate calculation methods, though...

Maybe I will work on it this weekend, I want to get my particle 
simulator to a level ready to release first.

Well I am 16, I do not do all that much POV art because I am not very
good at all at it, I have a lack of inspiration. I like poking around in
the POV source but nothing constructive ever comes out of it, I struggle
with the maths but I keep going and will conquer it and do something
useful one day!.

So that's why I loved it so much!

My best friend was a car freak once. We had long ago agreed that the
Viper has the best butt on this planet. As a proof, he had a poster of
a Viper's back surrounded by posters of Claudia Schifer, Cindy
Crawford, Ms. Bulgaria '96 (or was it '95?) etc., a total of 6
gorgeous babes, with camera placement putting them on fair grounds
with the Viper, and I must say the Dodge really stood out, it beat'em
all.

We were 15 or 16 back then, if this makes the picture more clear.
