Ragnarok 52 Cover Illustration
Sunday, April 22nd, 2007Here, by popular demand, is a bigger version of the picture that is on the cover of Rag issue 52. I’m a bit embarrassed by it because it was a test that was thrown together in about 20 minutes using Poser 7 and Vue 6 Infinite (although this one could have been made is Vue […]

Vue Eruption
Tuesday, April 17th, 2007The picture originally intended for last night’s post about Creating a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue Infinite was waiting for me when I got up this morning. Rendered in Vue 6 Infinite and resized for uploading to the web.

Creating a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue Infinite
Monday, April 16th, 2007An updated and edited version of my earlier blog post on making a Bifurcated Lava flow in Vue is now available on the impworks web site as Creating a Bifurcated Lava Flow in Vue Infinite. While making an image to go with this I’ve been playing with some of the new tools in Vue 6 […]

New Vue Python Script: Terrain Matcher
Tuesday, April 10th, 2007Have you ever wanted a plateau on your terrain that a building can stand on or to cut a flat road through a scene?

Terrain Sculpting Python Script WIP
Monday, April 9th, 2007Making a terrain for a model to stand on can be a time consuming process in Vue. I know a couple of tricks to make work but I wanted something to make it easier. A python script seemed the obvious answer. I’ve been hacking around with it all weekend. It’s not ready for public release […]

A Vue Accident Waiting to Happen
Monday, April 2nd, 2007I was messing around with Vue and Apophysis a free fractal flames generator for Windows. The render is a simple sphere with a texture derived from a single fractal flame applied to it. Just a quick render without a lot of thought about composition but still there is something rather dynamic about the flames.

Cell Shading Tutorial from Brady Mac
Wednesday, March 28th, 2007I got a sneak peak at Brady Mac’s new Toon shading tutorial for Poser and Vue this week. It’s a very simple and effective way of bringing the two applications together to produce a different type of image. The picture above is the first one I made following the tutorial after a few quick test […]

New Vue 6 Hot Air Balloon Render
Monday, March 19th, 2007I thought I’d share a recent render I did in Vue 6 Infinite of a hot air balloon in front of a glorious spectral atmosphere. I set up the scene and then created an animation moving the camera vertically at a very small frame size to find the best camera position for the final picture. […]

New Vue Python Script: Cloud Builder
Sunday, February 25th, 2007Here is a new Python script for Vue 6 Infinite and Vue 6 xStream. It places a meta cloud sphere at the same position as all of the objects selected when it’s run. See the readme file in the zip for more information. As always I’m releasing it into the wild as a Beta here […]
