That's impressive and its pretty - so pretty impressive I guess.
Good one Lyle.

Thanks Skinnyhouse. I think Resynthesizer to re-texture the stones made a big difference once I resized.

Try this one Lyle. Should be seamless.

OK, Rod; gave it a try (sans Resynthesizer; just takes too long).

Very alienist looking.

There you go again accusing me of being from another planet. lololololol

OK; finally got sculpture generator loaded to my net newer computer. Mahvin's link no longer works and don't believe I ever copied it to even my last new PC; lol.

Still had to play with this gem once again. Now that I have a 4K monitor, I can even get higher rez outputs (screen captured and processed within the GIMP of course). One day I'll have to try to get into 3D programs. lol

@Rod.
If you did the pattern in post #103 in Gimp (unfortunately I suspect it's FF) - then I'm very interested in how ?.

Sculpture Generator animated versions found here: viewtopic.php?f=22&t=15876#p219792

Definitely FF (version 8 pro)

Hi Rod.

Thank You for the quick reply (I have FF7 but I am looking for a possibility to create such a very interesting pattern with Gimp).

Time for my Sculpt-Gen Fix!

Linux: I think it is going to take a bit of work to get animations as good as the examples shown. Very roundabout way.

SculptureGenerator.exe works with WINE (but is a bit picky about WINE version)
I can get an ASCII .stl mesh out and convert it to a binary .stl Using a little ruby script convertSTL.rb
The binary .stl to .obj with ctmconv (part of openctm-tools package)

..and Gimp gmic to open the .obj file. Coloured it with gmic stylize.

The animations I did were with wine, I can't remember which version. I don't use wine anymore so If I wanted to use Sculpture Generator, I would just use a Win VM. The program is very limited for me though, so likely won't have a need for it.

Blender can import the .stl and export it as .obj also. However the key frames are lost as well as the texture. I didn't know that Gmic can import .obj, I'll have to see what it can do....

I just checked and I don't have 3D Mesh in my Gmic. I tried importing my .obj using 3D Rendering by Je'Je', but it just crashes Gmic.

Is it possible to use FastStone Capture in Wine. That's all i used for mine to select a rectangular area and create a movie file. Then i just uploaded it to YouTube.

There is no need for FastStone in Linux, plenty of good free screen capture utilities available already. I used SimpleScreenRecorder to do the same thing with my animations.

All sorts of ways.
I have to confess, I find SculptureGenerator a little tricky to manipulate.
However, one way or another I get a .obj file from it.
This time for Art-Of-Illusion (AOI 3D java) and rendered an animation, set of pngs for Gimp. Used a 'particle' type texture (not sure that was a good choice) and the shape spins like this

Glad you got your fix in, Rod. lolol

Fantastic stuff; didn't know G'MIC can work with 3d files now (really need to keep up with all David's doing with his gem).
