I went to Dovedale on Friday and took a few photos on the way down from Thorpe Cloud to the Stepping Stones. Spent some time today stitching them together with an open source program called Hugin.

Above and below are the results!

Loads of snow today, here’s some pics…

The Peach Project is almost ready to send off the pre-ordered DVDs of Big Buck Bunny. See their blog post here.

I recently upgraded my phone and decided I needed to create a new background for it.

I settled upon a 3D version of my blackcougar avatar which I use on some of my forum accounts.

The screen size is 240×320 and the background is below:

I’ve just finished coding a python script for Blender 2.44 which imports all the jpg files in a folder into planes in a scene.

This can be used to import a number of reference images into a scene as an aid to modelling.

V1.0

* imports any pictures with the extension .jpg
* resizes planes to 2 blender units per 1000 pixels

V1.1

* implements changes proposed by migius on blenderartists to work on windows xp
* can choose any extension
* can choose the scale

V1.2

* cosmetic changes

Version 1.2: importrefimages12.py

Working on a gallery to archive all the BWDC entries.

Finally created a banner for the week day challenges over at blenderartists.org

Let me know what you think of it. I’m currently working on some proper guidelines for the challenge which is now onto it’s 12th week.

That is when I’ve finished revising for my OU exam on Tuesday!
