Tux-penguin is a legendary character for all IT specialists. It is a symbol of a free / open-source OS - GNU + Linux . We've attempted to create its 3d model. We've made the mesh with Blender and textures in Inkscape and Gimp . Our Tux character is designed for massive 3d environments and augmented realities. Most of the 3d models of Tux that we've seen were designed to be rendered into a static image or a movie. On SourceForge we've found awesome artwork by S. Baker ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/tuxaqfh/ ) that can be used in interactive virtual environments. The main difference is that the file should not contain unnecessary mesh detail. Nevertheless, we've decided to create our own from scratch. Here you can find a nice collection of info about Tux, which was very useful to us: https://sjbaker.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_History_of_Tux_the_Linux_Penguin Also we've stumbled upon a very cute sound recording of penguins https://freesound.org/people

We wanted to create only something for entertainment, for ourselves. Most videogames have this boring missions and all these limitations - you can enter here, but not here - it's like in school. Even the usual reality can be more interesting. And we started to create something, almost like our around us in the real life, but decided to add a portion of beauty. And then it began. We started to seek some new unusual designs for buildings, cloth or cars, and opened something unexpected. Even simple t-schirts will soon know more about our mood that we know. Different items, small devices like communicators or even food will simply be printing on 3d-printers in our houses. And the houses will autonomously grow, repair and eventually replicate. All elements as houses, roads, vehicles, landscapes, and these videos, even music — all here is made by us from zero… At this point we have a little mess with all the files and generally this is why we didn't share these scenes with pu
