Indigo Renderer Forum

Hi there. Here's something I did the other day in MoI (sorry Wytraven, I'm a poly wimp).
This is the wonderful little Brionvega radio. The only challenge there, really, was my crappy graphic card, which made MoI struggle with the large number of booleans to create the square wholes in the loudspeaker. Otherwise, pretty straightforward, with no complicated shapes.
Rendered with Indigo9t7 (I know, I'm a bit behind) 32 bits (needed .exr support for the reflections) overnight at 2000x1000, downsampled by 1/2.

Poly's or not that's damn nice. Not that we'd expect any less of you BbB

Woooowwwww very good work BbB!!!

BbB, great render, as always.. i love this radio, I have one here that was made in the mid-sixties.. still perfeclty working!

very very nice....this is some 60's Gadget??????

Thanks all. Yes, this was designed by Germany's Richard Sapper in the 1960s and it's a great piece of engineering too. Mine is also an original from that time (It looks a bit more battered in real life, though I used it to grab the textures for this model) and it still works like a charm!

beautiful work! my dad found one of these lying around during his escape from germany in ww2, i was pretty amazed to see this superclean rendering of it (how it should look ;))

the cable and the transformer iside are not original..

Lyc: If your father found one during the war, then I'm definitely wrong about my dates

Thanks Matsta. By the way, I've left the actuator cooking for the night. I should have a clean version tomorrow... a last.

MoI is like sex to me, too.

Except, you know, I'm having it.

Great render, and spot on compared to the photos that have been posted!

Let's say it's a passable alternative (to sex).

Thanks by the way. But the more I look at it the more I think the mats are seriously off. Shell not reflective enough, interior not dark enough... Feels a bit like a toon version...
