LEGO animated assembly using PovRay: Tubafrog's videos.

[Calabar]

Maybe many of you already know about these videos, maybe not.

I follow Tubafrog's channel from before I started to attend EuroBricks, and I find his works are really awesome!

Using Powray he animated the assembly of some of the best official sets made by LEGO.

My favourite videos are

and

.

If you are only a bit curious take a look at his youtube channel or his blog.

No one interested in this?

After about a week, not even a comment about these I consider fantastic works!

Maybe someone knows any other that creates these kind of digital animated assemblies?

I just watched the video for the 4956 Creator house.I have that set myself,but sadly it took a little while longer to build that it took in the animated version.

Pov-Ray has a step clock feature which you can use to make animation's,although I have never attempted to use it before so I am unsure of it's limitations.

Technic user Blakbird makes animated renders on his technicopedia site,both of which look like they use Pov-Ray's clock feature.

I like TubaFrog's work on the Lego Technic Expert Builder 8860 Auto Chassis (

The video of 4956 is not available in Germany.

Very strange: what is the displayed error description?

[PsyKater]

The usual: Licencing problems with the music. There is a conflict between google and GEMA, the german collecting society and performance rights organization.

Probably that's one of the reasons why he is uploading his last works with and without music.

Did you try to use a proxi?

Nice .

But it's a pity, that you can't easily make such videos with LDD out of the box .

[Calabar]

For those that are interested in this, after a long wait

is a new video from Tubafrog.

Enjoy.

Wow, these are some great animations. Very cool stuff.

Does anyone know if there are some easily understandable tutorials on how to make such animations?
