Fresh, out of Cinema4d

Just finished this first "rough". I call it "rough" because the client may still want to change something  ;)
Anyway, it is a very popular plant in my country and it is related to a special religious season that will be happening in a couple of months called "Santos Populares".
It is really nice to do organic modeling in Cinema4D  :)

p.s. I didn't loose too much time with the vase  ;D

i'm really looking forward to a complete scene surrounding this plant!


your capabilities seem to be very high!

Probably I will not be the one doing the composition. I will just provide the "bricks" for another guy create the whole "builing" in Photoshop.
Thank you very much for the compliment  :)

Forgot to say that the whole plant was modeled in around 40 minutes and it has 1539 leafs ;D

Rui Batista

Hi Rui,

looks very good.
How many different leaves did you model?
How did you arrange them? Surface Painter?

I just modeled one. Then I made an array with six more copies and then, after converting them to polygonal objects, I changed each one a bit with the magnet tool. Three aditional smaller leafs were placed at the center.
So, the "module" has 9 leafs.
Then, I placed them (randomly rotated around the normal and with 20% random scaling) on the surface of a roughned sphere using good old Particle Target (I really love this plug-in)
I don't have Surface Painter :(

Rui Batista

Thanks Rui, for sharing your way of modelling this cool plant.
Please post the final, when finished, will you?

Will do  :D
But the final will not be only my work.

Hi,

can´t see the pic! Could you leave it a bit longer on your server so I can see too?  ;D thx

3D Designer

paste the img url into your browser. that should help.

The image is there  ???
The problem is that my host (www.brinkster.com) has the bad habit of only making my folders available while I'm on and have a window opened to there. Only then, the rest of the work has access to my folders.
Anyone knows of a free web host (without banners or pop-ups) that behaves better?
I would be happy to change. Even if it is only for placing images, movies or C4D files. This way I could make them accessible for everyone.

Rui Batista

Hi,

yeah it works. Pretty cool picture!
With the webhost I can´t help you. There was a really good host that was for free (freedom2surf) but is now commercial. I had PHP. Perl, 20 MB Webspace, MySQL and some stuff more and without any popups or banners.

A real pity!

When I find something i´ll post it here.

Sweet work as always Rui  ::)

Thank you darkness. So, how are the plug-ins going?  ;D

Rui Batista

Slowly  :(

The more I look the more bugs I find in mvPlacer...

And I'm supposed to be working on 2 other plugins - as well as some other programming stuff and modeling ..... long days ahead  :-[

I share your problems my friend :(
I also have modeling, illustration, video editing, book writing and house keeping to do. And so little time to do it. And I even try some COFFEE programing sometimes ;)
