From being a migraine sufferer myself I have to say that is the best visual interpretation I have ever seen of how one might feel... great job

What a powerful piece... Not cubism -- tranglism, perhaps? Excellent work that captures the "feel" of a pounding headache.

Latin sounds so much cooler than English - compare 'cephalalgia' with 'brain pain'...

exactly

amazing work as usual. thankfully I haven't had a migraine in months (**crosses fingers**) and the last BAD one I had was several years ago. I was curled up fetal position in the upper corner of my bed crying my eyes out because people wouldn't quit driving past the apartment and shining their headlights across the window and there wasn't anyplace darker or quieter to go.

<>Very cool, sorry about the headaches, they gotta be terrible.

-Isn't there a way to randomize the flat triangular polygons the mesh bomb creates? Maybe bomb it, collapse it, meshsmooth+noise, then bomb again with different settings, just an idea from a complete 3D novice there. Same goes for your super structure series.

-Ever get to pull off that 'Brilliant' idea you decided to make a journal entry of a while back?

I have suffered with migraines since the age of 11. I have, at the very least, two really bad ones a month. My body is immune to the effects of numerous tablets now, from taking them so much. Anyway, why I am I telling you all this you may ask? Well, as one sufferer to another, I can say that I think you have captured the pain and torture felt remarkably well. Non-sufferers have no idea just how utterly painful a full blown migraine can be. At their worse, they can put you in bed for 3 days. Well done!

Hellhuff [2004-12-22 21:26:56 +0000 UTC]

real nifty render and postwork here
very nice job

my comment:
I really like the shatter effect, how do you do that? Is it pre-modeled to look like that or did you use a specific render effect?

Nifty suggestion:
I bet this would look really, really cool if you put a light inside the head for the shatter effect and put a particle generator around it so that you had a shadow/ray effect.

Anywho, very nice job on this. You've given me another great wallpaper, amazing, you supply 95% of all my wallpapers (by the way, that's a compliment from me ). Here, have a

i did try it with the volume light, but it took too much away from the render. there is a small amount of it mixed into the final piece tho.

the effect is generated by a low poly model and a bomb modifier.

Hellhuff In reply to zilla774 [2004-12-22 22:07:24 +0000 UTC]

yes, I suppose it would take away from the rest of the render

Maybe it's just me and my particles, I use too many, but they're just so FUN (I'm currently rendering an animation that's using waaay too many particles, my RAM's been eaten and it's been running at 100% processor for 4 days). I've always thought those kind of effects were really cool, so I'll probably just go on thinking that a shadow wallpaper would look cool with that image, hmmm or maybe do a separate render then superimpose the better parts. I've never gotten those completely shaded renders to work properly myself, but meh.
