It is very funny to watch those balls. I must admit that this model totally messed up my 3D viewing and imagination skills :) Somehow always the “wrong” ball is first :) Great!

@smike – thanks, although it is more of an experiment than something I planned :D
@alfredix – it is funny – in a disturbing kind of way – all the spheres are spheres, but they don’t always show up as spheres and they have an amazing ability to be where you least expect them!
They’re nice and shiny using the Fresnel shader, but then all transparency is lost.

@sady – All the textures are in the right column. If you click on “view all” it should take you to a page where you can download them. I created them all in Photoshop at 50% opacity, but I don’t know whether that feature will come with them when you download them (I should try – duh!). I hope this helps.

In wireframe mode it reminds me of the early days of CAD when we spent more time trying to figure out what we were looking at than we did actually getting anything done! We’ve all come a long way :D

Loading ... Please wait...
They’re all textured with 50% transparent colors, but their behaviors and interactions are odd. :D
nice work getting the chades to interact like that

what textures have you used,i can’t find them in list

OK, I did try it ( http://www.3dvia.com/dswavely/models/335857293B0D1F31 ) and the downloaded png textures do keep their transparency. Yay!
still laughing by mr planet
still excited by the 3.0
mainly,still me…
@sady – I don’t understand “laughing by mr planet” ??
I’m glad you’re excited by 3.0.
Most of all, I’m glad that you’re still you!
Thanks sady, it’s no fun to be clueless. :D
Thats just plain cool! Nice one dswavely!
the balls look in the tangent points like having a butterfly inside,like that glass balls from the childhood
I like the way this looks in the Fresnel shader (and the spatial ambiguity is removed!)
Thanks rhalstead. The fresnel shader does do a nice job on this model. What I would really like is transparency AND specularity.
It is really amazing! Here the transparency plays vital role. :)
Thanks virteam! It was fun to make and play with. I’m glad that you enjoy it too!
great idea :D
the transparency makes them look much better
Thanks Jack Red! I agree that the transparency is way more fun. It certainly keeps you guessing as you revolve it :D
the spheres in wireframe are looking cool

Nobody at 3dvia is an idiot.
I know I must be really weird when I say this, but I think it actually looks cool in cartoon shader.
ok,at first mr planet seemed to be a nerd,but actually i think he’s quite nice
