Hi,

Sean has left the following comment at Create a technical screenshot http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8022221:


great attempt


Osaze, you're on the right track and I like the numerous attempts. The very first castle image is the closest to being a "technical" screenshot of the collection. The video isn't very useful because you're clearly not familiar with how to use MGED, but it's a good concept. You might want to look at the mged quick reference sheet and the geometry browser if you attempt another go (particularly the "tops" and "l" commands instead of guessing geometry to draw).

So the problem with the castle model is that it's not technical. It's visually interesting, but very simple demo geometry. You need something much more complex. You also should demonstrate an overlay rendering as the description states. We can help you do that big, but your first step is to find an interesting geometry model that can be showcased.

Your best bet is to likely import geometry from grabcad.com (stl, step, or 3dm work best, but some will fail, especially if they're not solid) or some other similar site instead of using on of our example geometry files. If you must, though, look at the biggest files.
