Haven't posted in a good while, so here's something. Working on a 
t-shirt. Want to make a second design with fewer colors and something in 
the foreground, but fashioned this into a *loose* approximation of 
Lichtenstein's which would make a cool shirt on its own, IMO.

Gets my attention!  Nice piece of work.

Just to reassure myself I made a quick test and nearly
got sucked in myself.  Hypnotic way of working.  So immediate.

Glad you are back btw.

  Layered objectS         with leopard pattern.
Very close. About 9000 pieces. Most of it is triangles.

Compared to modeling a shoe, yes. This took a few hours.

Semi-back I guess, in the same way I have been semi-gone. I though with 
my new work schedule that I would have more time for things like POV. 
Turns out I have *too* *much* time for POV. There are so many exciting 
alternatives available to me now. How long has it been since the average 
8-5er has swung naked off a rope swing into a creek (5 days)? Taken a 
ten mile hike through the forest (6 days)? Hopped a freight train (4 
weeks)? Climbed a water tower (4 weeks)? Taken a crap in a dumpster(18 
hours)? or even swung a sledge hammer? Scrubbed on his hands and knees? 
Lifted a ton (almost 8 in one day)? or many of the other things I do 
regularly at work?

POV has become somewhat restricted to what I can accomplish in an 
evening or two.

It happens that it was during a free-time excursion Saturday that I 
first saw Lichtenstein's explosion. I had seen a poorly rendered grenade 
shirt at a shop a few days earlier and had been thinking of creating my 
own with a benday explosion behind it. Went to the museum with my wife, 
and there it was, one of only two Lichtensteins and a great reference.

ps. Coolness for a t-shirt aside, I don't really care for his benday 
stuff. I have a low appreciation for irony.

Nice to see POV being used to render something other than a 3-D scene.  Keep
up the cool designs! :)

That would make a nice T-shirt especially if there was an entry wound on the
back :-)

POV renders 3-D scenes?

Thanks.

Still, it's cool what you do with flatness in a tool that is almost always
associated with 3D space.

In my day the food was excellent, in fact people went offshore to get fed

Although I knew one man, on a protein diet, who took 30 tins of tuna with
