The teapot of computer graphics fame February 1988
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The accompanying picture of Martin Newell's teapot was created using
Sculpt-3D and data obtained from the January 1987 IEEE Computer Graphics &
Applications article, "The Origins of the Teapot". The teapot is a very
good test object because it has both positive/negative surface curvatures,
intersecting surfaces (handle and spout) and even a saddle shape surface
(neck of the knob).
The teapot consists of 2256 triangles. The 320x400 HAM picture required
approximately 36 hours to generate using Photo mode and best antialiasing.
Also, a 65% dithering amount was chosen, as allowed by Scuplt-3D V1.102,
to reduce the fuzziness.
Enjoy!
