MrGoodson2 said...: Exciting image. The way I'll experiment with Blender is a bunch of billboard particles. Each billboard with different building groupings.

This is trying to get a line drawing product from the get go. Have to read it completely at some point.; 8:01 PM
Tom Moon said...: Programmers dream finally come true - artists are no longer necessary! Been saying that ever since I've been in the business heh heh.; 7:44 AM
Surly Bird said...: I see where you're coming from, Tom. I think it's one more tool in the kit, though, and since it's free, I'm all in. :); 9:43 AM
Davis Chino said...: Is this a computer rendering from a photo? Some kinda layout artist filter?

It does look cool...whoever (or whatever) did it.; 4:20 PM
Surly Bird said...: NPR is a term applied to specialized rendering techniques that attempt to do something other than the typical shading/rendering of 3D models, Marty. Cel-shading probably is the most common technique used, but there are tons of effects that can be achieved. I've seen compelling engraving simulations, for example.; 8:13 PM
Tom Moon said...: That's "Non-Photorealistic Rendering" as opposed to "National Public Radio". (I had to google it. I love google.) It is pretty impressive that a computer can be taught to make such a human-looking line.; 7:04 AM
