Made as part of a challenge on the Blender Underground forums, this is a saw made from wood. A wood saw, if you will. The challenge was to create an image from a plank. Just the one plank was supplied which is why they all look exactly the same.
Wood Saw
Made with Blender 2.56a Beta
A Cup Of Coffee
Blender really does have a very powerful particle system. This coffee cup was made by adding a ‘hair’ particle system and having each particle rendered as a coffee bean. I got the idea from someone’s avatar on YouTube so it’s not an original idea but, I think you’ll agree, quite a good one.
This is my latest piece in my line of Snowman pics. This is actually for 2010 but it’s still not quite finished. Never mind, eh?

Made these today in a fit of wondering what to do today. I used the latest build of Blender (latest builds available on Graphicall.org). Do have a little look-see, won’t you?

Sometimes I take photos. Once in a while, I take photos which I think are good enough to share. Here’s a couple I’ve taken in the past couple of weeks which fall under that category.

I created this video following a tutorial which you can find here by Andrew Price (Blender Guru). I’m pleased with the overall effect. I was trying to make it look kind of ‘real’ without trying too hard lol.
The flags are both cloth simulations with a nice strong breeze blowing them about.
After making some 3D effects for a previous meerkats movie, I’ve been asked if I’ll do all of the animation for the next one. It’s quite a challenge but I’m gonna give it a go. My first step is to make all of the characters and start a library. Here is a meerkat head that I’m working on…

I shall be doing the whole thing in Blender. Hopefully, Blender 2.5 will be stable before I get into full flow. Or will the be Blender 2.6?
Here it is. All 6 main characters from Spongebob Squarepants in wallpaper form all in one place.
Took me approximately a week of modelling and rendering to get it done. Hope you all like them.
Spongebob Wallpaper Collection by ~dodgydavec on deviantART
As usual, all made with Blender.
PLEASE SEE THE UPDATE HERE FOR THE COMPLETE COLLECTION
I’ve just finished making the first four wallpapers in a collection (see http://davecollison.com/blog/2010/08/14/my-most-popular-deviation-ever-so-far/).

After the last post in my blog, it seems I have struck gold with a very simple wallpaper. I took a model I made of Spongebob Squarepants and adjusted it to fit a wallpaper. Took off his trousers, legs, sleeves and arms and stretched him out to fit the screen.
I got this:
Spongebob Squarepants Backdrop by ~dodgydavec on deviantART
Well, within the space of 12 hours, it’s had THREE HUNDRED views. I’m astonished and very pleased. On a side note, I discovered by entering the search term “triquetra wallpaper” at deviant art that my own triquetra wallpaper is the most popular in views and downloads by about a quarter of mile! Go me!
