Re: For all the desmids lovers :)
Wow! These are lovely!
I'm curious about the structural medium. Is this brown plastic, or chocolate from 3D-printed molds, or have you figured out how to 3D print well-tempered chocolate, or something else?

Wow indeed, let me know if they come up for sale :-)
The one that shows the chloroplast structure is a nice touch.
Best wishes, René

Aha! So I guessed wrong about exactly what "rendered in Blender" meant.blepharopsis wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 4:24 pmThey don exist in real world - yet - I'm preparing the meshes (3d models) for 3d printing right now For now, this is just computer graphics "art"
