Submitted some work to the Ahvaland gallery which opens on the 19th this month! The theme is "Crossings" and I made a few images following the journey of a tugboat passing some interesting cargo. Originally I planned a series of 6 images, but got around to finishing 3. If I can get my kung fu in order, I may get another one done.

Here's a before and after of one.

I'm honing in on the light and mood. Dial in the scene, then narrative and details last. Narrative and details last... #mantra

I think I spent too much time on this. The principle I try to follow is being general in the beginning and details at the end. But I found myself tinkering, going back and forth between details and broad bludgeoning. Bad habit.

Must move on... (the crack fiend tell himself). Back to work, landsculpting later.

Some raw renders, as I do some composition seeking. The sky (not shot by me) was originally portrait, I rotated it and the clouds look like smoke drifting upwards. Happy accident, but doubt I'll use it.

More doodling. The key thing here is to figure out a route through the image (that involves making decisions) and tidying up. Until then, using fog and writing copious amounts of poetry is a place holder.

Stacking Rounded Off Figures

Today's bout of insanity came around by trying to account for 1mm. Yes, one millimetre.

The total wall when measured is 10 560. The wall is divided into the following lengths (mm);

(624, 3610, 462, 2351, 3514) = 10 561.

One millimetre on a project like this isn't going to bring it to the ground. However, the madness won't let go; why are these figures different when measured in one length compared to measured in several? I remeasured and retested the marking off points, everything seemed good. Then I hit the jackpot

- Displayed dimensions are rounded off, for your pleasure

- Computer dimensions (highlighted in red) are to 4 decimal places

So basically I added up a bunch of rounded off figures. This is kind of what happens when you stack tolerances. Don't measure with severals rulers, find the longest one.

Size matters.

Namaste.

Actually, I should get off my arse and tidy it up...

After trawling the interwebs looking for a neat way to do this, I've made a video showing the GUI method. Here's how to get contour lines in DXF whilst retaining height values.

QGIS > DXF > AUTOCAD ( 3D ) > HIGH FIVE

Let's do it!
