It was great. It had gears, the engine had functional cylinders and a cam. The seats adjusted. I wish I had taken better care of all the Lego sets I had when I was young.
A bit of late-night / early morning experimentation and learning.
Same as before, but rendered for my wallpaper. Elon Musk image by the excellent @The_Red_Dress (Website)

A bit of fun with physics in Blender, made to amuse the Reddit Blender community
A Blender pre-visualisation of the KD ultra mini sub.
A Blender render of this glorious relic made from the “stolen” 3D scan.
Fiddling about with the new GPU-SSS capabilities of Blender 2.77 (pre-release) and 3D scans from 3Dscanstore.com
Testing out the GPU-SSS in Blender 2.77 pre-release 2
A sort of modern take on the Cornell box with my favourite shape, the interwoven sphere.
So, I’ve decided to do some 3D printing with Shapeways. Starting with basic shapes, I whipped this up in Blender. I think I want to make geometric jewellery. Now, what to make next?
Messing around with the tissue tools in Blender.
Visualisation of some e-cigarette drip tips made with Blender.
Practising modelling to scale in Blender. The model is a WIP.
I had do do some very quick Archvis recently. I quickly discovered that turning an artist’s sketches into a 3D object isn’t always easy. Here’s the WIP.
A few of the Abilix robot kits I’m modelling for our publicity department. They will end up being rendered into various scenarios.
A bit of experimentation with a phone camera, Blender, MeshLab, VisualFSM and CMVS. This is a 3D model of an ornament in my house. I think I need to try it with larger objects.

Trying to learn some new skills in Blender. It makes it.. too easy.
Model making with ISS components. I must finish this at some point. It’s too clean.
What impresses me is how fast this renders. Using object-based lighting and full GI, this image still renders in just a couple of minutes on the GPU. A few years back, this would have had to be an overnight render. You have to love progress.
