A simple wireframe design with a convex hull of a truncated tetrahedron.
It is the sketch of something bigger and more sophisticated... Four Interlocking Hexagonal Prisms.

Paper: Kami.
Unit count: 24.
Paper's size: 1:3 rectangle.
The mirror was part of a security mirror package, I guess it won't mind that it will be watching our house now instead of catching people stealing sodas.
Shot of convex through opening of the Mola Demi. I'm looking to get a strobe for the Mola. Profoto Acute B 600R with head vs Paul Buff Einstein. Any thoughts?

Colombia Crest, the highest point on the mountain with lenticular or convex clouds on its summit. This shot also shows the interesting terminus of one of the glaciers or at least a part of the glacier system. Mt. Rainier has the greatest single-peak glacial system in the United States. Glaciers radiate from the summit and slopes of the 14,411 foot volcano. This mild telephoto shot was taken from "The Trail of the Shadows" across the road from the Longmire Inn on the south side of the mountain. The color version is below in the comment as well as another shot which is the left slope of this view.

Hidden from the streets near Piazza Navona, the church of Sant Ivo rests at the end of an inner courtyard. It is part of the larger Palazzo Della Sapienza which was the seat the old university of Rome from the 15th century up until 1935. The church was designed by Borromini and the interior is a maze of undulating concave and convex shapes. It's simple design all in white is utterly breathtaking. You can clearly see the influence this may have exerted on today's modern architect, Santiago Calatrava. The church has rather erratic opening hours, but the courtyard is almost always viewable.
My wide angle lens at the time just simply wasn't enough.

I have taken these photos in order to use them for 3D modeling. I like mapping images onto surfaces, and putting decals onto them. These photos are raw JPEGs which haven't undergone any treatment at all - no reduction, no re-sizing, no auto contrast or auto levels or anything. Please feel free to grab anything you like and use it for your projects. Some may require cropping and sharpening, colour calibration, etc., but you surely know all that. Best of luck with your projects.

De la Simca Neuf à l’Aronde
"C'est le jeudi 31 mai 1951 qu'est dévoilée à la presse spécialisée la nouvelle berline Simca Neuf, plus connue sous le nom d'Aronde. Cette nouvelle, dans les deux sens du terme, fait littéralement I’ effet d’une bombe dont I’ aronde de choc se ressent jusqu'à Bobigny
Dès 1953, Meccano s'empresse ainsi d'en sortir une copie au 1/43. La miniature, mesurant 95 millimètres, est réalisée d'une seule pièce en zamak et possède, comme toutes ses consœurs, un plancher en tôle riveté. Les roues, convexes, sont toujours chaussées de pneumatiques blancs.
Sous la référence 24 U.
Meccano produit en fait deux modèles bien distincts.
Le premier type se reconnaît à sa calandre anguleuse ainsi qu'à sa carrosserie et ses roues peintes en gris clair, vert olive moyen ou vert olive foncé.
Le deuxième type possède une calandre allongée conforme à celle adoptée par Simca au salon d’octobre 1953.
Deux variantes de finition de peinture sont utilisées sur ce modèle équipé invariablement de roues chromées La première est uniformément gris clair, gris verdâtre ou bleu ciel tandis que la seconde est bleu ciel avec un toit ivoire, bleu moyen avec un toit ivoire et gris clair avec un toit vert foncé avec des nuances assez prononcées.
Cette dernière version est produite jusqu'en 1959 année où elle reçoit la référence 536."

Simca Aronde
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The Simca Aronde is an automobile which was manufactured by the French automaker Simca from 1951 to 1963.
It was Simca's first original design (earlier models were all to a greater or lesser extent based on Fiats), as well as the company's first unibody car.
"/ Aronde -hirondelle" means "swallow" in Old French and it was chosen as the name for the model because Simca's logo at that time was a stylized swallow."
The three generations
"There were three generations of the model: the 9 Aronde, made from 1951 to 1955, the 90A Aronde, made from 1955 to 1958, and the Aronde P60 , which debuted in 1958 and continued until the model was dropped in 1964.
Some 1.4 million Arondes were made in total, and this model alone is largely responsible for Simca becoming the second-biggest French automaker at the end of the 1950s."
- Simca 9 Aronde (1951–1955)
"The first Aronde debuted in the spring of 1951 but initially only a few hundred pre-production cars were distributed to carefully selected "guinea-pig" buyers, and the full production version was finalised only in time for the Paris Motor Show, becoming available for sale in October 1951.
The full production version incorporated various detailed changed when compared to the pre-volume production cars, including a changed material for the seat covers and a moulded plastic dash-board which at the time appeared very modern when compared to the metal dashboard on the Aronde's most obvious competitor, the Peugeot 203.
A few months later, at the start of 1952, space was found to position the battery under the bonnet/hood: in the original cars the battery was stowed under the front seat.
The Aronde was fitted with a front-mounted 1221 cc 44.5 bhp (33.2 kW) engine from the previous Simca model, the Simca 8, fuel feed being provided by a Solex 32 carburetor. Power was delivered to the rear wheels via a traditional four-speed manual gear box incorporating synchromesh on the top three ratios. The car had independent suspension at the front using coil springs, with a live axle at the rear, suspended using semi-elliptic leaf springs. Hydraulically operated 9.85 in (250 mm) drum brakes were used all round.
The only body style offered at the October 1951 launch was a four-door saloon/sedan/berline, but other configurations very soon became available such as the three-door estate (branded initially as the "Aronde commerciale" and later as the "Châtelaine") with a horizontally split tailgate.
There was also a van, called the "Messagère", and a "commerciale semi-vitrée" - part panel van and part estate - became available in 1953.
Of more interest to collectors is the two-door coupé coachbuilt by Facel. The Facel-built coupé was replaced for 1953 by a coupé based on the saloon Aronde body, called Grand Large, featuring a large three piece wrap-around rear window and a "pillarless" side window effect when both side windows were wound down.
A two-door cabriolet conversion, prepared by the coachbuilder Figoni, was presented to the public for the 1953 model year in a display involving ballerinas, but it proved impossible to confer sufficient structural rigidity on this car without unacceptable cost and weight penalties, and Figoni's Aronde cabriolet was never produced for sale.
(...)
The 9 Aronde was well received, especially in France. It took only until 17 March 1953 before total production of this model at the Nanterre plant passed 100,000.
The company's flamboyant boss. Henri Pigozzi, was keenly aware of the publicity that could be gleaned from the craze for record breaking runs.
In May 1952 an Aronde broke five international records by covering a distance of 50,000 km (31,000 mi) at an average speed of 117 km/h (73 mph), and in August 1953 another Aronde, selected at random from the production line, returned to the Montlhéry circuit for a new record attempt whereby during the course of forty days and forty nights the car covered 39,242 laps which represented 100,000 km (62,000 mi) at an average speed of more than 104 km/h (65 mph).
This achievement, which involved breaking more than 30 international records, was undertaken under the supervision of the ACF."
