A vintage version ... :)

I like how you obtained main profile (made two red lines then BLENDED to have a rounded connection )
Leaving other technical discussions,it's logical that rubber seal must be a solid..it's an object,have a tickness,so a solid.
If not happens,you must try to obtain it,searching where are open parts (this is my workflow)

Thanks again Mike

apparently the coconut tree's are growing iron rigid leaves in only 2 distinct shapes now.... We can still party though.....

...now is really a MoI Brand Portable Luau System (i can't imagine a party without coconut trees..).Great!

Lejan:the vintage one surely meets Mike's flavour !

Lejan... wow!... no, no... let's try this again: WOWWWWWWW!!!! =-D

Now that is awesome. (of course, it is breakfast time at the moment)

A 12-slice Mega-Toaster. Great job with the render, by the way!


(I just noticed the "coal" setting.)



Burr, Yes, but you can't complain about its time-released palm tree action. Who said a portable luau couldn't be more than a glass and a bottle of the good stuff. ;-)

Glad you like it, but you can't really mess a good base model which is fun to play with!

The 'coal' setting finally get's rid of those random happenings of burning your toast
and therefore creates a more convincing illusion of a controlled life... ;)

Cinema 4D, physical renderer and vintage look in PS.

It came out nice!

I especially like the glowing coils, nice touch.

Hi BurrMan,

just in case more shade is needed there is a free tree generator for hot party times... ;)

Hi Lejan,
""""""""""""just in case more shade is needed there is a free tree generator for hot party times... """""""""

Thanks for that link. I always like to fool around with those.... I have a couple that can do a decent job. There's a cool one for Carrara that will do "ivy", so you can set a base up, and it will generate obj growth all over the object. Like Ivy.. The app that rendered that has a tree generator also. but maybe not as robust. I'll have to check out the one you posted. Bryce has a decent one.

I suppose I could spend some time making a few different leaves for 8 different branches and get a good result. I used ScaleArray on a single leaf shape, which doesnt do much for Organic. Might take me a couple days to do it good though...

Probably what I would do is create single leaf (poor little guy, needs a girl), then flow it to 12 or 15 (Something close to double 7) different surface shapes, then use some type of array, like ArrayGem or path, to distrubute the different shapes throughout a stem, then go in and manually rotate/move the leaves to break it up. Then, flow that to a few different surface shapes to generate enough branches to elude detection of repeated shapes. Probably then look for a texture that works and set something different on the stem and leaves. Make my nuts smaller, and add a few...



I was really diggin on your toaster... I'm looking forward to see stuff you do with MoI......
