And will wrap this month with a wild wild strawberry.

That coffee bean is bonkers. What are the size of your images that you can get that kind of fidelity.

Thanks! Lately shooting with GFX100S+120mm macro lens and focus stacking. 11646x8734
Will use this occasion to post some fresh scans from January:

Very cool, are you open to sharing a reduced size version of one of your photos from your series?

sure, here is a different bean which I didn't release yet. Focus stacked from about 15 shots@f8.

A large variety of exotic fruits for the start of February.

Spicy stuff was my focus lately. I scanned few of the hottest chili peppers on earth, including carolina reaper and trinidad scorpion. The tricky part about photoscanning such subjects is the homogenous featureless surfaces. To overcome this challenge I've used a long-time proven technique - permanent marker dots. Also it helps if the subject is a bit dirty or dusty. It adds an additional step of clonestamping the diffuse in the end, but it's worth it.

One tricky subject to scan. It dries and changes shape so quick in front of the ring light. A lot of manual fixing and texture clonestamping was needed. Spicy!

Sometimes I'm not choosing subjects for scanning, they choose me. I ran into this cute small bell pepper while grocery shopping - and it was so perfect in all senses that it was screaming to become digitally immoral. A small weekend project in itself, with scanning of tail and body separate to then reunite in 3D. Paprika is love.

I grew to love and appreciate blueberries more since I moved to Sweden. I've scanned various ones over the years I've lived here, this last one being my best to date. It has a 16K diffuse texture that can withstand even extreme close-up renders. 6264 shots @100Mpx focus stacked into 216 inputs that were processed by Reality Capture. Original mesh at 32mln triangles processed into 3 LODs with proper quad-retopology and manual unwrap. Yummy!

9 new scans released recently. Still can not give up scanning them nuts) but the pineapple is my favorite from this set.

[LuckyFox]

A fresh batch of scans, some nuts and some pears among other things

[LuckyFox]

cashews are dominating this batch of scans

[LuckyFox]

This variegated set of scans has a bit of everything, big and small, fruits and veggies, and somehow even a pinenut.

This is the most detailed almond scan I was able to accomplish recently. It can hold even extreme close-up renders as visible in the last 8K render.

Po-ta-toes! Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew!
To all corona renderer users from Sweden - Glad midsommar! May your potatoes be well cooked and the dill tender and savoury.
My current collection of scanned potatoes includes 8 pieces. With the occasion of midsommar I'm giving away the latest one I've scanned, fresh from Malmö, for free to use in personal or commercial projects.

Back to walnuts again. This time two halves of the kernel.
