LibreOffice in Blender

There are some years that I work with Blender, an open source 3D program. I love to play with 3D, making an simple idea become true. Although, my first try to mix Blender and LibreOffice was put a bit of the Blender's User Interface in the LibreOffice's User Interface.

So today I thought "Why not put a few of LibreOffice in Blender too?" Yeah! Here is a try:






It's just a 3D model of the Writer document icon from LibreOffice's new branding. For now I made it for fun, but maybe it can be useful to marketing stuff or something else, I don't know. :)

    Hey this looks great. Can you provide some larger resolution? Looks like a poster or a desktop image to me ;-)

LibreOffice New 2020 Icons

Hi... Again. After so many years, I'm back to LibreOffice icons development. Or at least that's what I'm trying to do with this: A spoiler of what's in the end. Caution: work in progress. Here I'm going to start documenting this journey, from my first contribution in 2011, through my first failed try of returning in 2015, up to the present days of 2020 with the development of the icons above. I'll try my best to write as many details as I can, because I like it that way, so take your time and enjoy the ride. Preface Before I start, a recap of my history in LibreOffice. Back in 2011, I've joined the design team, and helped stylizing and creating bigger sizes for the new icons, originally and beautifully created by Christoph Noack at the time. Comparison between Christoph's original icons, and my additions, both from 2011. These icons are called the Mimetype Icons and they were used in the main applications desktop icon, and in the document

LibreOffice Wallpapers

Hi guys, here we go with more 3D stuff: Update (16 feb 2011): The second wallpaper was updated to correct some incorrect vertexes on 3D meshes. The most perceptive error was in the triangle on top right corner of the Base icon. Now they all look fine. :D [Blender + Gimp] - The PNG files are huge (almost 1MB each one), so here you find JPG versions : Wallpaper 1 - Wallpaper 2 These are my first wallpapers since I started to play with 3D models of LibreOffice new icon set . The first one have no much perspective and the light source come from the backside. It's the because icons have less saturated color. The second still have the back light source, but this arrangement and camera perspective make the scene darker. Please, make your choice. :P Design team, sorry for change the color of the symbol and the "Document Foundation" text.  It was done to make them seem more native in  this "light style", and in mean time empathize the Libre Office name too .
