Hi all !
I've just saw lord of the rings (1) (2 and 3 half in the TV but I am gonna see them full).
If I called it just amazing or fantastic, it would be too unfair :shock:
I also saw how it was made. I thougt that the 3d models had each of them over a million surfaces, espesialy the buildings (in the 3rd episode, the building that looks like the Titanic) witch are made from trillions of rocks, but when i saw how it was made, i realised that a model like a human was just made of about 600 - 1000 surfaces only!!! Including curved surfaces. But how a simple model seems very very complexed? (In the rality it's about 1000 suraces, but in the screen it seems like million surfaces)
