Left side part 2

Gokul has already posted about Gokul and me joining IIT for an internship of 2 months and about our work on the VLE experiment. The modelling phase is reaching its conclusive stages. Here are a few shots of the lower left side part of the experiment:

The Rendered Model
The Reference image

Most of the modelling was done by Mandar and I just added a few things like the spouts, taps and internal tubes etc as Mandar was delegeted to other important work. Please comment if you guys have some sugessions.

VLE Project Revived

Me and Priyam have signed up to continue the work on blender here at the ASL lab for another 2 months. And what best to complete in this short time but the VLE experiment we abondaned halfway through last year :)

Me and Priyam have completed one half of the modelling , while bhairav is doing the other half.
The following pictures are the models and mesh for the right hand side of the setup.

Will soon merge the 2 parts once bhairav is done with the left hand side part...
and then work on materials and lighting.
