Over the past months I have received many requests to make available some demo images from Lighwave 3D, the rendering and animation software that comes bundled with the Toaster. So I have uploaded a few that I have created that show off some of Lightwave's capabilities. They are on ab20.larc.nasa.gov in incoming/amiga/Toaster_Pics. They are all interlaced overscan HAM images and took an average of about 30 minutes to render in 24bit 1536 x 960 resolution except for Blender and Tape which took 6.5 and 4 hours respectively because of shadow generation. The Teapot rendered in a speedy two minutes. Here is a quick summary: Blender: This was my contest entry into AV Video's Amiga design contest. It consists of various forms of media being jammed into an osterizer. Highlights of this image include glass, shadows, a very nice looking model of a compact disc (CD), marble counter top, and a digitized background image (my kitchen). This image is my favorite. City: An industrial city scape. Shows off the use of smoke (for smoke stacks) and depth cued fog. F15: A camoflaged (sp?) F15 flying over a field of trees. Of special note are the fractal noise clouds and the flame exhaust of the F15. Office: An office scene with various objects illuminated by a translucent hanging lamp and a lit candle. Tape: A reel to reel tape deck and synth keyboard in front of three colored spotlights. Shows multiple colored shadows and various surfaces including metallic lights, brick wall, carpet, and striped wallpaper. Teapot: The classic Newell teapot rendered with a rippling chrome surface. Anyway, hope ya like em. If you would like to receive 24bit version, let me know, HAM just doesn't do these images justice! %~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~% % ` ' Mark Thompson % % --==* RADIANT *==-- mark@westford.ccur.com % % ' Image ` ...!{decvax,uunet}!masscomp!mark % % Productions (508)392-2480 (603)424-1829 % % % ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For those interested, 24bit IFF versions of Blender and Office have been added (note the 24 postfix in the filename). %~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~% % ` ' Mark Thompson % % --==* RADIANT *==-- mark@westford.ccur.com % % ' Image ` ...!{decvax,uunet}!masscomp!mark % % Productions (508)392-2480 (603)424-1829 % % % ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
