It's a wallpaper with "other" theme based on a poll I had a few months ago.

1600X1200 pixel available for personal usage only



I made petals from scratch with polygons and painted directly on 3D CG (using Bodypaint within Cinema 4D) to improve on texture skills. I haven't made stuff from polygons before since whenever I tried, I failed (but not this time!). I added the wireframe and outlines I created from the same 3D CG model using cel render top and bottom of this graphic.

I liked how it looks almost like rocks- petrified flowers perhaps?


a practice before this (where I didn't make from polygon) I did a few days ago:



Cinema 4D R11 studio (modeling, painting, rendering)
Photoshop CS3 (editing)
~3 nights (rendering took ~1 hour with Global Illumination)

It's fun to do something totally different.

Next one will probably something less soft for change :)

or so I'm planning to. It never goes the way I want these days :(

:) thank you

I used similar transparency/alpha like the practice, but didn't use black in the background.


なんで今までめんどくさくてしてなかったのだろう。。。と思いました。

Wth, that's really amazing. I'm really impressed!
The colouring of the tulips is gorgeous, I have to agree with Narutokunobessed, they look like a traditional painting.
I also like the juxtaposition of the sketchy, paper-like background and the detailed finished flowers.
Is the colour a render you did in Photoshop or did you make that in 3D CG?

:D thank you very much.


I did coloring directly in Cinema 4D. I didn't do much of it before since I am often make 3D models with a computer with mouse and not tablet... in addition to the fact that I often forgot the existence of painting feature (bodypaint) in 3D software I have.... oops...

I adjusted overall colors in the end in Photoshop but painting part is done in Cinema4D without color adjustments or filters. :)

You're welcome!

I see, I never know that 3D programs offer painting options. o.o

Some do and I sort of failed at digital painting at the beginning and also... I didn't know where all features were until recently. :p

I know this feeling. It's really surprising what some programs can do and you never even knew about it. ^^'

I think fractals are like that most of the time. Computer gets beyond people's imagination :)
