Another Object Test

[j meyer]

This is a quickie rather,done to see if and how TG2 deals with large .obj files
and some other things.
The .obj file size is 1.4 gb.Took about 3 minutes to load,but rendered fine.
At this image size with default render quality it needed ca. 2.8 gb of ram.
64-bit version.

ahhh!!!!!
giant head, kinda creepy, makes me wonder if hes got a body buried beneath the sand.

i recall someone was trying to load large gigabyte sized objects made in what might have been xenodream...
it worked for him.

This looks nice j meyer!
That object looks familiar. A comic book character ?
Who is he? I am sure i know him but can't remember.

fun

[j meyer]

Thanks!

Kadri - That must be coincidental,I just sculpted it with no reference at all.
          Wanted it to be some kind of generic idol or so.
         
         

[Kadri]

Hmm! Interesting and very nice sculpting by the way!
Now this will occupy a place in my mind until i find the alike 

[j meyer]

In case you find it,please show me.

Now i know that they reminded me about Enki Bilal's drawings .Like these:

But i saw Prometheus today and there was some parts that surprised me.
I do not think that it is a spoiler because the picture below is in the beginning of Prometheus ,
but if you want to be kinda spoiler free (they spoiled it too much themselves) do not look at it:

Search for images about China Miéville , j meyer.
As i looked at images about Prometheus this guy came up too.

Cheers!

When i read comic book character in your first reply i thought must be a french
comic and now: Bilal. I've seen the Immortal movie some time ago,but i've
never read a comic of his,as far as i can remember.
I think so called primitive art and comics have something in common in that both
make use of some kind of simplification/stylization often.

Thanks for putting together the links.

[Kadri]

Yes you are right

Did you looked at the Prometheus link?
Just curious

[j meyer]

Yep,took a look.Had not seen that one either,although I looked for some
Prometheus stuff before.
