Description
A simple, minimalist wallpaper inspired by the Nintendo game Tetris. I was just experimenting with 3D textures in Bryce, tweaking things until I made a material that I reasonably liked. I decided to use said material on these tetrads; this only took about 40 minutes to make, not including render times.Related content

These are wicked cool. Shadows and black go great together.

This looks great, but I've gotta say it is a bit too dark, even on my super bright glossy LED screen.

Wow, that's really good!
Though I can't seem to remember that particular color scheme.

Thank you for thinking so.
It's done pretty well, for what little time I spent on it. Sometimes it's a little therapeutic to take a break from the big projects and make something simple, that you can knock out in one sitting.

this makes the most soothing desktop background...like a subterranean, jeweled world of tetris.

I'm just glad that it's me who loads the wallpapers on the computer. I can only imagine what would pop up, when Windows loads up, if you had your way.

I made this on an LCD monitor. If you're using a CRT, I imagine it will show up darker than it would on an LCD.

Thank you.
One day, I should try making a Dr. Mario render. I imagine those dancing viruses are going to be a pain to model in 3-D, though.

Thank you. It's really cool to hear that you like it that much. I have some regular Tetris blocks modeled, so hopefully sometime down the road I can get a regular 3-D Tetris render on here.

I reasonably like that texture as well. What modeling program do you use?
