Bryce 3D: Making Surreal Trapper Keeper/DnB Art on Windows 95
26,982A retrospective on Bryce 3D from 1997, a classic program letting you quickly create surreal ray traced imagery on your computer. It always makes me think of 90s Trapper Keepers, when school binders and folders were covered in shiny CGI shapes. It's also how lots of jungle/drum & bass artwork is made! Let's create a tribute to that style of art using Bryce for PC.
