What is Flamingo, Bongo, Brazil, and Penguin?

Rhino3D is the modelling engine used to create your 3D objects, Flamingo is a rendering plugin that makes your model look almost real, Bongo will animate your model to produce a movie, Penguin will let you create illustrative images of your masterpiece and Brazil will do higher quality rendering.

In addition to these plugins from the makers of Rhino3D themselves, there are many third party plugins for Rhino. These range from jewelry design, ship design, structural analysis, fluid dynamics, animation and rendering.

For rendering we like to use Lumion and KeyShot (and sometimes V-Ray)

It can be quite challenging to find the ideal product for your particular need so be sure to ask our team for advice or recommendations.
