INFO

Narvalo 3d has tasked themselves to take up an important fight against a possible fruitless world of the future. The Narvalo 3d fruit renderer can render fruits in a detail that leave other renderers 5, 10, or even 15 years behind. As proud partners of the D2 Challenge No.5, they are helping us redefine the FUTURE of FRUIT.

THE TASK

Use a model or the models provided by Evermotion 3d to create a render that is at least 47% fruit. The limit is only your imagination, or an image that is 100% fruit. If your image contains less that 47% fruit, it will still be accepted, but under EU regulations, we will not be able to call it a “fruit render”. Instead, it will be referred to simply as a “fruit depiction”.

Bonus points will be given for the following:
– a basket or baskets in the image
– fog
– 48% or more fruit

Please note: bonus points are not actual points and therefore might be worthless outside of a thumbs up from one of the judges
