Day 19 - Ponytail
If you're wondering what this has to do with ponytails, well, that plant there is a Beaucarnea recurvata, also called a "Ponytail palm" (not really a palm), also in Mexico called an "Elephant's foot".
However nice they may look, please don't buy them because apparently they are being overexploited and they are on extinction danger.
I am getting a bit behind, i was supposed to upload this one yesterday.
Anyways, made this thing instead of the offical prompt, i didn't wanted to make snots or boogers.
It was supposed to be loopable but i forgot to change one thing so what the hell.
@hideki can you add a couple of paper recyling boxes one 4 White the other for Colered ?
A random critique of your artpiece
@hideki
Water and the environment is perfect, but the swans are all in the default pose.
I believe, that deforming them slightly individually would make them more believable, while taking about 3 minutes to do.
@LukeAlmighty hah i won't even take advice from someone that can't tell aparte swans and geese
Haha no but you are right, in fact i was gonna put some of them flying but i wanted to be done with this piece i forgot some things
@hideki
Magical.
I don't get why did the salt have to go away, but this was so surreal, if I saw this ad in TV, It would be one of the best ones.
@LukeAlmighty in retrospective, it would have been better to make it dissapear in one of those last spins
@hideki
Oh, I've just notised you had streched the salt
Well, it kinda adds to the weirdness. I love it though, because it doesn't feel out of place.
@LukeAlmighty thanks bro
@hideki just to say (I'm used to b3d and wood scraper ;p ) : usually the cutting blade is not so Pi/4 - 90° oriented but more at at ~Pi/8 - 45° related to the wood plane ...
otherwise it's pretty cool ;p
@Olm_e Thank you! yeah, probably it's true i based the angle on a reference image i saw of the actual tool and i just copied the angle, they may have had it that way for illustrative purposes or i don't know.
@hideki ok ... looks like some are done with the blade more straight so to more finely polish the wood that to scrape mater out of it ... you just don't never know the diversity of tools in #woodworking so nevermind ;)
@hideki I get why random colour mode isn't the default (looks kinda silly) but I still really wish it was
@applejack you know you can set it as default, right?
Set your workspace and your options exactly how you want them, then file > defaults > save startutp file. Then Blender will start like that every time.
I prefer this random mode because it allows me to know better which objects are separated and which are joined and all.
@Loki gracias, mi hermano en cristo.
Se me ocurrio en la tarde cuando fui a comprar papel
@Loki y originalmente iba a tener mas cosas como buhos y otras cosas mas pero es complicado hacer algo mas detallado en un dia y con un trabajo normal.
Ya habra tiempo para hacer algo mas en forma.
@Arkana thanks!
The lighting is a bit stupid and the details are barely visible but it always serves as practice.
@hideki oh shit i'm going to eat all of them
