Pinboard

Artwork Works in Progress
1

Well, I’ve been messing around with Blender on and off for ages, but this is the first thing I’ve felt worth posting, as I might actually get somewhere with it.

Notes: Only the pins are anywhere near finished - the board, the room, the lighting, materials and camera all need work. Suggestions welcome. Then, of course, will be the animation.

I used Dupliverts for duplicating the pins, and the Drop2Ground python script to move them. There may be a better way of doing both, suggestions are, as previously stated, welcome.

Hehe, that’s a nice idea. :slight_smile: Here’s another: make it a clock! Like here: http://www.pulju.net/shop/products.php?p=bb2f7f (don’t get frightened, the language is Finnish… you can still understand the images ;)).

Heh, awesome. I always love playing with those pinboards. Looks good so far :).
