So simple yet so detailed ✨
I made this dice for a recent video tutorial about color profile baking out of Octane for C4D and decided to give it the turntable treatment ☺️

Aaaand my #BCON25 #b3d talk is already online!
It was (and is) an amazing experience.
Thank you so much @blender.org OTOY Render-Nnetwork and of course the amazing audience for having me 🥰
Hopefully you can take something away from it 🧑🎓

Hey everyone.
Otoy's Render Network invited me to hold a Talk at Blender Conference 2025.
If you love keyboards, raytracing and have sympathy for a blender noob finding his way through the software, then this might be something for you ⌨️✨

I was asked by a community member how I would do a beer bottle setup to help him with a scene. So I thought I would create a scene for him and then also share it here.
Win Win if you ask me.
This scene it straight out of the render. No comp.

I got around modeling the wrist-band (sds) as well as shading the watch model I created in my last two plasticity tutorials.
So you can see how the model can look like shaded (Which we will be probably doing (shading) in the last two sessions) The next will be CAD export.

Aaaand one last time the RaspberryPi (for now)

following up other "Data Storage Devices" as the Compact Disc and the MiniDisc I decided to create a Compact Cassette.
Modeled in #plasticity3d
Animated in #cinema4d
Textured and Rendered in #octanerender
Composed in #fusionstudio
I hope you like it 🙌

Lately I did some more MiniDisc renders for a musician that releases on the MD format.
One render I am especially proud of is the Maxell OZ-Black Disc version MD.
I just love the light play in this clear one!
Though I also love the colors ones as the Sony Color Collection.

I thought about places where you would see them usually. And traffic light posts came to mind. So I modeled a typical German traffic light button to put some stickers on to.
