I found something neat!
KeyShot has its own instancing thingy.
On the right side at the top where your scene hierarchy thing is, right click on an object and select Make Pattern, its great.

Very impressive…should be an “installation” in the Louvre. ;)

hahaha!!!
Thanks, but I think the Louvre and the people of France would object.
“We, The French, object to this object. We find it gaseous, circular and redundant.”
That is almost exactly what the would say if they said it in english, which they would not.
The French get a lot of crap about stuff, but when it comes to picking out things to display, eat, or to be seduced by there is no substitute.
Just look at the entrance to their subway systems.
I betcha they have a governmental department dedicated to keeping me and my ilk out which is why you never see my stuff there.
I need more coffee. My central nervous system has decentralized because of a photograph.
That’s a nice catch, Mealea …hadn’t noticed it, but it should come in handy and it looks awesome in your render!
great work…and Freudian ship?! Nice

I doubt it, but if not the Louvre, then the Guggenheim…one of these, for sure.
Just for kicks, why not submit some of your art?
“how to get my art displayed in a gallery”
This looks especially helpful. “12 Steps…”
Use the Force!
…to this cool thread!
I have seen that you have found Magica Voxel(new address) and Verve! 
We are waiting the new version of this last one who will be entierely rebuild!
Have fun art!
Hi Frenchy!
do you think France would appreciate mealea’s artwork?
Je pense que oui!
Beautiful installation !
The kind of art I like.
Blender has volumetric lighting but no caustics, Keyshot has caustics but no volumetric lighting, these tools are getting on my nerves!
There’s maybe some misunderstanding. Cycles glass casts caustics alright. You just have to enable multiple importance on the light’s properties panel. With the exception of “mesh lights” which will cast caustics anyway.
HDRI background environment will also cast caustics. (not much noisy, that’s good news)
However, a lamp or a sun, a spot light, (multiple importance enabled) will get on your nerves. 5000 samples will still look noisy. Fireflies you see.
This is what I meant, cycles glass caustics should be faked.
Heres this:
hehe Theo Jansen.
fantastic stuff.
in Belgium we have Panamarenko

@Patpotlood:
Interesting site!
Thanks!
Here’s the Blender version of the fresnel light I made:
At least I got it transparent!

Making progress.
Needs (a lot) more samples? 100?
BTW, how’d you make the lens in ZB?
Does a Fresnel lens make the rays parallel,
like a lighthouse beam?
Removed offending B gui …out of place.
mealea,
any new art to show us?
Things slowing down?
How about some 2.5D… ( part of a project ).

Amazing your designed is very good . and i am trying to make it . and i like your fuzzy is great .good work. and best of luck.:D:D
Thank you HarryJames,
Actually these are fun to make.
In 2.5D, I fill the screen with a texture/image then work on it with an alpha I also made in ZB.
