In proposing the creation of a work halloween pumpkin my students never thought that he could get much juice to exercise.
Besides the interesting variety of models created to recreate the classic face, I found a perceptive curiosity led me to a detailed analysis of some aspects of the Gestalt Laws in class.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Blender is the ability to use objects to represent the points (vertices) a surface.
The image that I bring today is made from a plane deformation undergone by a sinusoidal law, where we have changed the points of its surface by icosahedra.
A helix is a surface generated by moving a straight line with two movements:
A rotation around an axis or core,.
A translation in the direction of the axis.
This generation model is applicable to the construction or manufacture of many technical elements, como las escaleras helicoidales, the drill bits, arid drag elements etc..
En Blender se puede generar un helicoide mediante el uso de “Hooks”, extrusions and modifier “Array” we have seen in modeling.
An effect that can be interesting is to illuminate the sky changing shape to simulate a sunrise or a sunset on “time-lapse”.
Lighting variables, as well as other variables in Blender, son susceptibles de ser animadas mediante la técnica de Key frames.
During the teaching-learning process that occurs in the courses I teach at the university ground propose different jobs that are oriented according to the educational objectives that apply at all times.
The way to motivate students with these works a significant impact on their academic performance, so that combining different strategies allows for optimum results.
Overall I like teaching base long-term projects that serve, fundamentally, for students to maintain a constant exploratory attitude to the subject; Every aspect or concept being taught can ask the same questions:
Would I used for my project?
How do I adapt?
A straight tapered axial helix is the basis for this wallpaper which idealizes a Christmas tree.
The model used to test the performance of twisted ruled surfaces, at the time you create a wallpaper.
Once more, la geometría aparece en nuestros diseños navideños. Una arista que rota y se traslada segúnla dirección del tronco del árbol genera una interesante superficie que lo emula.
By introducing transparent materials have been different parameters that characterize. In “Cycles” have named a shader “Glass” to simulate the behavior of translucent objects where the light changes direction through them.
Has an associated transparency parameter that redirection of light rays passing through the material, is the coefficient of refraction; the software performs calculations to simulate these effects are based on the "Law of Snell".
A new wallpaper which straddles the number of graduates realistic wallpaper “Real or simulated?” and “wallpapers de navidad 2012 – 2013” recreating the work entitled “Nuts and Bolts” adding classic Christmas tinsel made in Blender.
A fund-like embossed wooden table serves to support the tinsel, and nut-screw with balls reflecting an environment map.
“Dynamic paint” is a feature introduced in Blender since version 2.61. Lets use an object as canvas (“Canvas”) and another as brush (“Brush”) and dynamically, through contact with the painting brush, “paint” textures that can be used as weight maps for different purposes.
These maps can be used to simulate dusty areas we can clean, grass fields we can cut (by the). condensation on windows in which to fingerpaint etc..
A new version of Blender has been licensed today.
The review that includes more than 200 bug fixes (Bugs) detected in the previous version, 2.64, includes significant improvements in the particle system used in the generation of smoke, with ability to mix colors and variable domains to generate smoke, and in the surface mesh editing.
Version, interface that maintains the 2.5x series coming months will continue to evolve to provide significant improvements in their rendering engines for particles between other notable aspects.
The coincidence of Christmas with the winter season in the northern hemisphere makes associate snow with these festive dates.
We could not miss us to conduct a snowflake in Blender for a Christmas wallpaper as in past years, with the “Snowflake 2011”, “Snow flakes” or the creation of a material for a realistic snow snowflake.
In this case we have used the system with particles rendering techniques in layers and overlapping with nodes “Mix” to create this new format snowflake wallpaper 1280 x 1024.
