It was definitely worth the effort! Thanks for taking us with you on this journey! I can´t wait to see the first pictures of the prints.

I can totally relate to your feelings about blogging and updating about your project! It takes more time, than you would think! Even though it seems like it´s just uploading a couple of pictures or screenshots and writing a few sentences about it. I needed some time out from this as well

I don't regret doing it but next time I'll ease back on the fine-grained process details and be more intermittent with updates. All those little GIF animations were a bit over-the-top in hindsight but I still had fun doing them .

Wahey! following a busy summer, my photographer friend has a little spare time, so I should be having the rex models photographed this week.
I didn't want to put the models on Shapeways until I had some photos but in the meantime I've been messing about with some 3D renders in the style of a stand mounted model.







I don't think we'll be able to match the same lighting in the studio but the photos will be done blue-screen (or green-screen) so I'm hoping to drop in the same red background.

Wow amazing! Those renders are absolutly gorgeous!!! I really like the idea of the tranlucent red base too.

Thanks, glad you like them.
I overdid the bloom on a couple of them (might fix them later) but overall I'm pretty happy with how they came out.

Cheers! The 3D printed models are mounted on a perspex base, not red-tinted but otherwise they look fairly similar to the renders.
I've just returned from Mushroom Imaging studios so the photos should be ready soon.
