HellBall

I proud to present the first Luxball suitable for an horror movie:

And if you wonder how the hell is the luxball modeled:

What the... ? is that displacement or something else ?

Whatever it is, it's awesome!

[zsouthboy]

WTF how did you make that?

[Radiance]

Hehe, it was a wired idea indeed: I used Ivy Generator and the external shell of the Luxball (with reverse normal) to rise a (wired) plant inside

Than I removed the standard Luxball shell and I had a "plant" raised with the shape of Luxball. I used copper and a bit of bumpmap for the material,

Yess... dade! Really moody result

Thanks for sharing, Riccardo.

I like the result as much as the creative idea you implemented for it, Dade, thanks for sharing

OT:
On a side note I downloaded Structure Synth (zip for windows) and it throwed an error at startup, complaining about bad software init or something; weird since it's delivered with dll's and so. Any hint ?
edit: nevermind. It's still not working but I suspect my system status to be the leak here. 7zip from sourceforge don't run as well.
