    Desktops ohoy!

    on April 5th, 2010, by William

    Zoom, first blog post. Since I only recently arrived myself, I’m still getting used to things here. I decided to go for a quick institute tour to check out what everyone is working on. So, here are some sneaky sneak peeks of top secret Durian goodness, with out of focus depth of fieldness to protect you from the epic awesomeness of PROJECT DURIAN.

    PS: Hover over each screenie to see whose screen you’re watching.

      Did I miss something? Where is Angelas Desktop?

      Marc

    13. Le@ndro Says:

      Yes! We’re missing Angela’s and Beorn’s screens!!! (or I missed something in the middle and they already left… that could happen too… I get distracted easily).

      Nice spoilers!

      Cheers!

      @Shinobi: just look at the names of the files πŸ˜‰

      @Durian Team: Excellent work… keep the blog up πŸ˜‰ we need more…

    15. lsscpp Says:

      Maybe that shot is not even in the script… OMG!! Is Colin making a secret-short in which Sintel gets killed by a raging beast??? How EVIL is he???

    16. Shinobi Says:

      Allan, actually is what I did… MUAAHAAAHAA! πŸ™‚

      lsscpp, sometime ago I read a twit reading: “hyena fight” or something… πŸ˜‰

    17. Blendiac Says:

      Evil Colin Desktop FTW!

      OMG, Colin is the Arch Villain!!! Ahhhhhhhhh!

    18. Ken Says:

      I think on Nathan’s picture the guys arms are too short and the hands are too small..And Jeremy’s picture her head is huge…

    19. Radiant Says:

      here is a more dark version on colin.
      Photoshop FTW

    20. Stef Says:

      Scary Colin xD
      Interesting screenshots πŸ™‚ Is Pablo’s an actual rendering?

    21. pablo Says:

      @venom: es ubuntu el sistema que usan?

    22. D Says:

      Colin, will you ever forgive me? πŸ˜›

      http://i41.tinypic.com/20zah3m.jpg

      For the record, I hate Twilight.

      To be more on topic, it is very awww to see baby dragon and Sintel so happy together. πŸ˜€ And a giant preying mantis would have been cool. Looks like you guys are awesomely hard at work.
      And it does seem like Angela has been missing in action for a while, now…

    23. W Says:

      Awesome, D. good work there.

    24. W Says:

      Also…am I deceived, or does SΓΆnke have a beautiful blueish UI?

    25. Jacob Says:

      That is the best picture I have ever seen of colin! haha

    26. Ben Hubel Says:

      @D hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!! That is amazing!!!

    27. Davis Says:

      Lol @D, that’s awesome and horrible at the same time.
      @W I think it’s just the way the white balance is on the camera.

      oops, posted anonymously

      maybe should have left it that way rather than taking credit/responsibility for the silliness…

      let’s start an Evil Colin Contest!!!

    33. Aman b Says:

      WOW…

      Awesome…

      Oscar 2011

      Best evil – Colin Levy [ Party πŸ™‚ ]

      I think Colin not looking evil here but he is looking dangerous just going to transforming in an EVIL. I’m scared..

    34. Gianmichele Says:

      Cool!

      @Colin: When can we espect a trailer ?

    35. Nixon Says:

      i’d wanna see pics like this of nathan, brecht, ton, angela and all the other people on durian, maybe they could just act like they were angry so theres no real grief involved πŸ™‚

    36. Rudiger Says:

      Yeah, I’m starting to wonder if Angela still there. I know the modelling phase is probably over, but surely there’s some way you can put her immense talent to use.

      Also, to me, Colin’s expression is saying, “We’re on a deadline here. Get back to work!”

      Apart from that, everyone is looking really busy. Keep up the excellent work.

    37. wo262 Says:

      this is the official post of “DARK COLIN” Post your Gimp’d or Photoshop’d Dark Colin photo. hahahah

    38. AlesWolf Says:

      I’m afraid…

    39. MeshWeaver Says:

      wow, those are awesome “Dark Colin” pics! i wonder if Colin’s seen them yet…lol

      i like the Purple Lightning one best πŸ˜€

      about Angela, i think Colin talked about it during the Sprint live video… if i remember correctly, she had to go back home because of something, but still works on stuff… just not in the Blender Institute…

      Emu : I like your image, this is great

    47. Nixon Says:

      @emu
      great pic really cool look..
      is that meant to be tesla or einstein or any special mad scientist?

    48. Avenger1130 Says:

      Lolz I bet Colin is like “wtf… it was just a pic of me glancing up…” Emu’s and the twilight ones are the best…

    49. Avenger1130 Says:

      I meant to say “one” btw not “ones”

    50. elephantatech Says:

      here my take on evil colin http://www.flickr.com/photos/elephantatech/4499087018/?edited=1

    51. Ton Says:

      @Lasse: that screenshot is my email software!
      @all: yes, Angela is still working on Sintel, but currently full time from home. She is needed to be with her husband and family now. She’ll be back, at least for the premiere!

    52. Emu Says:

      @Nixon: Yeah, it’s originally a contemporary drawing of Tesla.

      Alright, if you like my work, I shall continue:
