Hi all,

i am currently studying various techniques to create bas reliefs from meshes, inspired by
reading documents from researchers in China. Here i like to show you a variant for NURBS
models. Please don't ask how this is done. At least it is not done with expensive ArtCam
software etc. It was quite interesting to research this topic a bit, because the usual techniques
when doing mesh reliefs have the drawback that the further the Z-Depth goes the more
problematic it gets at the edges, which end up usually as straight and unwanted extrusions.

P.S. while i get better results with meshes, i think this NURBS solutions is probably also
o.k. for jewellery designs, even if the if the contours of the NURBS surface are not so sharp
as their mesh counterparts.

Hope you like this idea!

The model shows the Ajax bust from my friend Jotero, converted to a bas relief.

The ring was taken from Grabcad.
