A model of Escher's "Ascending and Descending".

My god what an annoying assignment. Although i love Escher's work. making something impossible in 3D was quite a challenge.

4 hours of research and calculations.
8 hours on the model
20 hours of full blown headaches

1x 3Ds Max
10x Aspirin

Now all i have to do is animate it.

Different PoV to explain wackness: [link]

I'm gettin' headache when I only watch at it.
It must be a horroble work to get something incredible into reality.
It's great!

That's well done and nicely modeled :-)

Only thing is that the shadows of the building give the secret behind the illusion away (and I expect that the discontinuity of the building will also give you problems with the shadows of the monks in the animation). That's not an easy thing to fix though... :-(

P.S. I am into creating impossible 3D scenes as well, just see my gallery, so I know all about the headaches involved.
