Another doodle

Full-screen AA & lots of settings turned up, so it took 2h on my Q6600. Mitchell filter to soften the image, then sharpened it a little in post.

Isn't that some hitech futuristic HIV virus cell or something?

Played with it too. There was an article on newtek forums about modeling or texturing perforated metal a few days before you posted your doodle.
Phil, i hope i'm not ruining your trick. Just wanted others to see the post too. Vfxwizard found a really nice trick there. Useful for more purposes. Check it out.

Heh. Rumbled!
Yes, that's where I got the idea. It's a very, very clever bit of modelling. When I next get some free time, I intend to see how much further I can take the idea.
Posting here was really just to show off Kray though!

nice!
whats the orig res for the render?
2 hours for a q6600 seems rather long.

It took ages because I turned up a lot of settings to eliminate noise (quasi random FSAA with lots of samples, for instance). There's also a lot of transparency/refraction going on, which will slow any renderer down I think. It could probably be done a lot faster but I wasn't going for optimisation.
