Interested in trying 3D graphics?

DAZ Productions Offers Bryce 5.0 (for Win/Mac), a 3D content creation application, as a free download until September 6. Bryce 5 creates realistic 3D landscapes and animations. Go here for more info: http://www.daz3d.com/program/bryce/bryce5free.php

I really like it for abstract stuff. You can make some really wild stuff really easily, and use it as a texture layer on something else you're working on. Lots of fun. But there are also tons of free objects out there you can download and import into Bryce. Furniture, plants, spaceships... you name it. I used an abstract that I made in Bryce as the base for the image I made for my InXplicable site splash page, here.

Here's a few other things I've made with Bryce in the past...
Bryce abstract Bryce abstract
Bryce ice abstract Bryce abstract
Bryce meadow with trees Bryce shoreline with tidepool


Go download it while it's still FREE!! And pass this on to anyone you think might be interested.

Quinn, you could have some serious fun with this program. One other thing I did with it was this story graphic for Randall:
Last Man Standing

I found a model for the book, and I think I created the model for the Cartier box myself in 3ds Max, and rendered them in Bryce. Then I took it into PSP to add the text and embellishments.

I can only imagine the cool stuff you could come up with in it.
