Re: led moldings image1.jpeg & image2.jpeg Looks like a partially lowered ceiling. Use a resized Box that you elevate to the ceiling but leave a little space above it where you can add a lightsource like a panel or a chain of spheres like GaudiGalopin3324 suggested. image4.jpeg You can create this molding with boxes. You only see the outside of the molding so it makes no difference how the inside looks. The glass front can be a thin box that you make partially transparent by exporting the box and editing the resulting MTL file. Rename the first line with "newmtl ..." to "newmtl Glass". Add a line with "d 0.5" after the last line of that "newmtl Glass" block. Remove the other newmtl blocks. Edit the OBJ file and change all "usemtl ..." lines to "usemtl Glass". Save the files and import the OBJ file. The resulting object is a half transparent glass. You can change the d 0.5 value. Closer to 0.0 is more transparent, 1.0 is fully opaque (d 0.0 makes it invisible). You can still change the color if you want. image3.jpeg Same as with image4, just a different design of the molding. image5.jpeg Place the mirror a little away from the wall and add a lightsource behind the mirror. Probably a lightpanel that is a little smaller than the mirror. image6.jpeg Another different design of molding where you add a lightsource in the hidden recess. No need for glass for this one unless you want to. image7.jpeg Like image1 and image 2. A box close to the ceiling with a lightsource on top. All very easy to create. You can use boxes, cylinders, and triangles to create 1 meter of molding. Export it and import. Now you can easily stretch the molding to the desired length. GaudiGalopin3324 and other members are much better at advising what lightsources should work best, but you can of course experiment with different lightsources and see what you think gives the best result. ---------------------------------------- Dodecagon.nl 1300+ 3D models, manuals, and projects |
