Sundial

[Cad64]

Ok, after finishing my clock for the current competition, (If you haven't seen it yet, you can check it out here (http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=21834)), I decided to do another clock. You can't hang this one on your wall though. :wink:

As always:
Designed in Autocad 08
Modeled in 3DS Max 9
Rendered with Mental Ray
Rendered images composited in Photoshop
Total time spent on project = 3 days

Have you ever seen the wall mounted ones ?

The highest village in Europe, St Veran @ 2200m, has them on all the houses.

Thanks for the comments guys. :D

This project actually ended up being a bit more complicated that I intially thought it would be. There was quite a lot of intricate detail work in this piece that I didn't really take into consideration. I thought this would be a walk in the park, but it ended up being a bit of a challenge. But since I'm always up for a challenge, it was good fun and it ended up being a nice addition to my small, but growing, collection. 8)

I've never seen those wall mounted sundial's before. I didn't even know that was possible.
So there ya go, I learned something new today. :P

Wikipedia has a pretty good article that covers the different types.

What camera did you use to take those pics? Just kidding, but those would be great for some fake or foto comps. :thumbsup:

I need to get busy and practice my rendering skills. Just awesome stuff! No need for me to enter the contest.

[Cad64]

:o Is that why nobody's posting any clocks? I guess I should have waited to post my entry until the very end? I didn't mean to scare everybody away. :oops:

Maybe I should stay out of the competitions. :P

[SLW210]

Well, the reason I haven't got one for the comp is time. Just like the previous comp, as soon as the comp got started, I suddenly went from no work load to doing 3 things at once. :?

I still plan on entering (though I will lose), if time at work allows. :thumbsup:

But, yes, you have some intimidating renders. :D
