Earth Shot

<p>Since I made a new release of Banate CAD today:<br/> <a href="http://williamaadams.wordpress.com/2011/11/28/banate-cad-second-release/">http://williamaadams.wordpress.com/2011/11/28/banate-cad-second-release/</a></p> <p>I thought I'd make somethingto to go with it. Well, while I was out in space taking pictures of the moon, and space ships, I thought, hay, why not turn the camera towards earth and take a couple of snaps, and create a model while I'm at it.</p> <p>This thing is a vector normal mapped (a new term I found on the internet) model of the earth.</p> <p>I grabbed a couple of high quality pictures from the internet, and just threw them into Banate CAD, the same way as I created the moon shot, and there you have it!</p> <p>I'm sure someone is dying to tell me the earth is an oblate spheroid, and that I can't model it strictly as a sphere, but I think at these sizes it won't really matter.</p> <h3> Instructions</h3> <p>1) Print<br/> 2) Rule the Earth<br/> 3) Rejoice!</p> Category: Props
