A little update of my Light Owl…
Gave him some color and lit eyes.

Started brewing something in SDF Modeler again.
As usual, I'll keep you posted in a thread…
Blender 5.0 will feature improved Cycles SSS (Sub-Surface Scattering). You can already try it in the 5.0 alpha builds.
It's always an honor to see my Monster Under The Bed scene being used as a Cycles benchmark again…

Anyway, the tricky G2-continuous shape is now on the tool wall. It's a tray for this dual tape dispenser. (It absolutely did not need to be G2-continuous. I just wanted to play.)

A little progress impression of my demon head doodle.
Fooling around a bit with Dyntopo (dynamic topology) in Blender's Sculpt Mode, this gargoyle-like head emerged. Don't know if I'm going to finish it, but I kinda like it so far.

I made a relatively simple thing that brings Fusion 360 to its knees. As in, every change, no matter how trivial, takes over a minute to recompute.
It's the outline shown above, extruded and filleted, then chamfered around the top edge. It ran fine until the chamfer. F360 can't calculate the chamfer directly; I had to do nonsense with a tapered extrusion.

Today is G2 continuity day! I learned this morning that Fusion 360 can do G2 continuous fillets, and I needed to model this anyway...
According to the color map (right image), the fillets are G2 to the bottom, but the small fillet isn't G2 to the sides. And the corners are awful. I don't know what to do about those.
If you think this is going to be another Gridfinity bin, you're close but not right.

ICYMI: 
How did light shape religious experience in ancient Mesopotamian temples?
We investigated this by reconstructing and analysing lighting conditions in four common types of sacred architecture from the ancient Near East.
Using standardised 3D models, we simulated how natural light entered temple spaces.

Couldn't resist porting my sci-fi plasma gun to Blender for some grungy LuxCoreRender materials and atmospheric lighting.
