A few more renders! This time with better solder on pads, and rendering simulation and experimental data!
Very cool 3D work! But FYI, that’s not how solder should look — those aren’t solder fillets, and little pillows of solder would actually be indicative of soldering process failure.
so lets look at your beautiful pcb art work , congratulations you have Blender under your command.
have you wrangled them water shaders ? liquid shaders are your soldier. getting the right liquid surface tension
is key here. and the color of copper is , artistic licence
Blender is a strange beast indeed. I have had one or more versions of Blender on my PC for yrs.
its 110% free! its so powerful and packed with many professional CGI features. however its a nightmare to learn its bewildering array of inputs.
IMO its very confusing and difficult to understand how to drive this software. finding the Undo or back command. just knowing what mode your in,
navigating the maze of drop-down lists looking for that command you need so your 3 day 30 hr project is not lost or messed up by a miss-used command.
as an artist knowing what to make is not a problem. the challenge is making this software submit to my will & desire.
as an artist we have the right to farce the 3D CGI world into our submission. wire mesh can be a mess with over-extrusion so we need to add to it
over-contract wire mesh and you may have a solid lump of wire . broken polygons wire ends going nowhere. snap to grid now were is it.
Blender as CAD software not the best at getting scale & size right. a requirement for anything Not Alice in wonderland. including big white rabbits.
so if you need that 0.01 mm scale & size it will be a challenge IMO
