Description

Model of a Minolta XD7 SLR-Camera. Unfortunatly I sold mine a few years ago. So I decided to create a digital tribute. I used reference photos for modeling, so some dimensions and details may not be 100% accurate - at least the overall dimensions should be ok. The whole model consists of a single object and has been created for use with subsurface modifier. The blend file includes color, metalness, normal, roughness and displacement maps to make it look more realistic and to give it a used look. For the leather material I used a free texture from textures.com: https://www.textures.com/download/3dscans0441/133458

Made this scene with the model and uploaded it to Artstation: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/oOJddW

Beautiful work! But shouldn't it be marked as fan art?

ruwo over 7 years ago

Thanks. Good question - I didn't because industrial products are usually not marked as fan art on blendswap ...

Thanks so much. I bought an XD-7 in the early 80s, and I thought, correctly I reckon, I looked really cool using it. I loved it. I put it in part-exchange for their autofocus 7000. It was great but didn't fit the hands so well as the XD. I used it until the advent of digital. Great to see it again. Thanks. I might use it on a intro to a YouTube video. Not sure how at the moment, I just want to. Do you want me to tell you if I do?
