“The Entertainer”

Shure 55 vintage microphone, created and rendered in Blender. Multiple Boolean operations and an unforgiving chrome surface made modelling an interesting challenge. The scene is lit with a single HDRI. Balancing highlights and shadows in low-light scenes can still be a struggle, pushing my post-processing and lighting skills to their limits.

@pushingphotons I sat near the guy who had to convert the paper drawings for the 55 to 3D CAD format a few years back. It was fun seeing that happen. Are you really done if you are still missing the central #shure logo?

We use two of these stuffed with leds as headlights on our gokart.
