This is my very favorite filter. Giger would be proud.

Thanks, guys.

This was one of those filters that I thought up, then was pleasantly surprised with some of it's results (where usually my ideas never turn out and I end up scrapping the whole filter). I'm not sure what uses it might serve (maybe some embossed background wall or something?) -- anyway I just liked the Giger-esque feel it seemed to have. (I love looking at his work.)

They are the living walls left behind by the nanobots used by minors to bore holes to the center of planets in order to gain access to the giant diamonds - obviously. smile:D

Yep, Ron, that's pretty much what the filter was intended to reproduce.
If anyone earlier thought I had no idea what I was creating, then that just means they fell for my little ruse. smile:) smile:devil:

Really nice smile:) To be closer to Giger's work, you should add some grain. Your ribs are too shiny and polished smile;)

Thanks, PogS. smile:)
Yeah, the shininess does seem to take it in a slightly different direction. I may get back to it sometime to try to add a grain effect -- as it sounds like a good idea. (But I've got too many other projects I want to focus on at the moment... )

Is this beauty still average usage?! smile:evil: What is going on around here? When I learn 3D I will personally drive this filter to HU.
ssamm; come back and design a new filter!

Although popularity and high quality are different things
I'd add this filter to "Users' Pick" nomination.

'Alien Ribs' is perfect in its category.

Can only say to SSamm, - IF You are planning any updates or ideas for this and don't know how to do something - I would be glad to help without any gratitudes.

Best Regards,
Constantin

this is something i'd recommend for every new user in particular. there are some great, unsung heros in the library and they arent all in the HU list. one has to remember that one man's garbage is another man's gems. and also, that sometimes one only wears gems on special occasions smile:)

Thanks, ronviers. smile:)
(I'm thanking you for liking it, and "promoting" it, and also for your last post -- where without it, I would have missed the all rest of the comments in this thread since my last comment back in August 2007. (I'm guessing I missed them because my mundane job sucks up too much time to browse the forums thoroughly...)




Constantin, (from back in October):

Thanks for the offer. smile:)
Well, I was planning to experiment more with it to try to make it look more Giger-esque (e.g. by adding dirtiness/grunge stuff?) -- but I never got around to it and have been totally distracted with other projects...

But in case anyone does come up with their own alternate version: feel free to submit it (as I'd probably enjoy it).

Hi ssamm, Alien Ribs has spawned, at least as far as I know, its first HU offspring.
