Turned a #Blender3D render into my second ever #meme (which might be about #colonialism or #imperialism this time), even though it has far too many details requiring you to zoom in. 🙈🙉🙊

EDIT: Had to correct a spelling mistake and move the arrow a bit closer to the fall… 🏛️

A 3D render of a bookshelf focusing on the 1946 limited edition of Edward Gibbon’s The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire with golden line art on the spines of all seven volumes showing increasingly deteriorating columns (which are possibly Greek Ionic order, but still). Big YOU ARE HERE letters point towards the end. Flanking them care first editions of Chomsky & Herman’s Manufacturing Consent, Galeano’s Open Veins of Latin America, Bevin’s The Jakarta Method and Malm’s How to Blow Up a Pipeline, for completely unrelated reasons.

I’m actually pleasantly surprised how good this looks. #EeveeNext is pretty great even though the new raytracing is so noisy to the point of almost counting as an offline renderer now (but waiting 10 seconds for a render to check you got the details correct beats several hours for Cycles at least).

Blender showing how the scene can update at 10fps, although quite noisily so in Eevee Next (and this is running on a 3090 Ryzen 9 7900). One procedural material is also shown, as the only textures used are for the cover illustrations (which were all re-created from sctratch).

@eobet It looks great. I would have thought it was a real photograph.
