Stanford Easter Bunny - Voronoi

Hi all,

I needed a cool mesh to test some true voronoi patterns.

And in the spirit of Easter;

the Stanford Bunny seemed like the perfect subject!

The cell-center distribution for the voronoi patterns was generated using charge particle simulations:

The particles can move freely within a 1mm thick voxel model of the bunny. They repel and attract each other. And over time they form a near perfect distribution across the surface.

Next, the 1mm wide voronoi pattern was generated within the same 1 mm thick voxel model, resulting in round 1mm wires.

And finally the voxel model was polygonized using a marching cubes algorithm, and cleaned using VCG lib functions.

Stanford_Bunny - Voronoi pattern stl

Is based on single charges, producing a smooth distribution and a honeycomb like pattern.

Stanford_Bunny - Voronoi2 pattern stl

Is based on sets of 2 linked charges, or lines actually. This produces slightly elongated cells. Resulting in a more more crackly pattern.

And although it is not a derivative,

hat-tip to Roman Hegglin's "Stanford Bunny Voronoi style":

Happy Easter everyone!
