TIZIO

A Lamp reproduction by UK (german version)

Some specials about this lamp:
This reproduction of the TIZIO from Ardemide(TM) includes an IK model. The appropriate object is labeled as "Anfasser" (grabber). If IK is turned on, the lamp can be positioned with this grabber. The single links? have an angle lock to support the logical placments that the original lamp should be able of :)
Additionally all elements are 'constraints', that means you have full control over almost every element. This can be helpfull if you need a model with less polygons. If some rods have a rounding/bevel of 5 you can change it to 3 or get rid of it.
Beside this there are a lot of instances or mirror objects so if you change e.g. a single screw all other screws will be changed.
Of course the editor refresh will slow down but you are always able to make it editable, no?
In this context the base of the lamp is very time consuming. Similar is the head of the lamp. The element reduction (get rid of the wholes, change settings etc.) will speed up the editor.
There is a c4d file for every of the above picture. There are two materials included in the first file, TIZIO black for the classic version and TIZIO Titanium for the metal version. The materials use SLA and the scenes GI. Because different files are included the geometrie and materials varry as I needed it. The calculation time is very different too and reaches from some minutes to an hour for some close up's.
Oh, of course no picture was manipulated afterwards.
