Yesterday I was working on this keyboard wrapped around a sphere with Blender. It's an object that I'm going to use in a 3D scene, but I've thought that it would also work well as a wallpaper and this is the result. The background was made with the Gimp.
If you want to download it, you have a bigger version (1680x1050) in the Galleries, Wallpapers section.
Bye.
This is the box textured. Now it's time to set up the animation process, it will take a while.

This is a box I'm working on in blender. The concept is more a kind of fabergé's egg than other thing.
Actually, it's the dome of Saint Peter with a tibetant dorje at the top and chess pieces as statues. Modeling is almost finished, now it's time for texturing and lighting.
It's an object for an animation I'm working on, so stay tuned, I hope some progress soon.

It seems that soon we will return to the moon or at least that is discussed in scientific circles. The discoveries of water and helium-3, plus the possible future use as a basis for rocket construction and launchpad, appear to be sharpening their teeth to some who have almost prepared the paperwork for the plots they will own.
In the end, knowing that humans are as we are, it would not be surprising a slight reluctance of the moon to be inhabited, hence the title of the image: "What do they want now..."
Since the moon is a "kids tale's moon", as the star, I thought of incorporating the Tintin rocket as the vehicle to go straight to it.
All the modeling, texturing, lighting and rendering was done with blender 2.54, the last beta available today.
The Gimp was used to merge it with the earth, that is a photograph from a japanese satellite that orbits around the moon, the moon and star glows and the rocket propulsion.
The image is also available at the 3D gallery, "Others" section.
Hope you like it.
These are some icons I've made in 3D for some programs, because I disliked the one provided as default or because I wanted a high-res version. They are, from left to right:
- Ardour: A multichannel digital audio workstation that comes with ubuntu studio.
- Jack: A sound server also included in that distro.
- Qsynth: A fluidsynth GUI front-end application. Fluidsynth is software synthesiser based on the Soundfont specification.
- VirtualBox: A general-purpose full virtualizer for x86 hardware.
These icons are free to use, released under the GPL license.
This is the new wallpaper I've made for Ubuntu, if you want to change your screen look. It's made in 3D using the latest blender version (2.53 beta) and a little of photo retouching with the Gimp.
If you want to download it, you have a bigger version (1680x1050) in the Galleries, Wallpapers section.
See you.
