Lament Configuration Enigma
Found these, thought you guys might like them. If anyone could either vector them (if it's possible) or supply me with a higher res scan, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!!

Um, excuse me, but what the FUCK am I looking at?

Sorry...should've explained...it's a diagram of Pinhead's puzzle box from the Hellraiser series of movies/comics.... it's rather hard to find, so I thought I'd share..

Wow. I've got the plastic model of one of those behind me.
>> Enigma
really? cool...I've actually not even seen the movies yet, just bits and pieces, but I like the design of the box...seen some very nice prop reps on the internet...

Cool, another seeker of the Lament...I thought I was the only one - thanks, Enigma.
>> higher res scan ? digerman3
Any higher res scan of each part of the Lament cube so i can make biger paper model of the cube
>> Anonymous
Sorry, this was all I could find. But if anyone else has any higher res scans or could somehow vector or enlarge the sides of the cube I'd appreciate it.

There's not a super amount of detail on some of the face images for a good vector trace. Aren't they supposed to form images when they're twisted / joined together properly? Maybe putting them together, figuring out what the fimal image is, recreating it as a vector, and then resplitting it into the facets might work. But's that's a hell of a lot more work than this anonymous wants to do.

Also, I remember there used to be a screensaver for xwindows (note the 'x') called 'lament' that included a fairly detailed three dimensional animated vector of this thing. You might be able to extract good vector data from its source code.

There still is; if you use Debian or Ubuntu, it's in the xscreensaver-gl-extras package, and it's called lament.

Here's the source code. It probably won't run without the texture for the cube, 'lament.xpm'.

Here's the manpage for it:

Oh, and I forgot to mention, lament.xpm is 128x768, so you probably won't get anything useful out of it.

Before I hit reply, i was like HELLRAISER!?!?!
>>69263indeed it is the gfx for the box.
What I want is something that would actually articulate, like when you rotate it and make the pseudo-pyramid. SPOILER (for anyone who hasn't seen the movie), the box is not Pinhead's per-se because all of the people you see in the movie are victims of the box, so infact it can just be called the "hellraiser box" or the "box to the hell dimension"
GAWD i loved hellraiser :D Internets to the OP.
Oh i'm too lazy to login to g-mail, someone e-mail me these scans please.
Oh and no viagra, i don't need any.

"gb2 GM-ing giko"? WTF? And yeah, I dunno how vectoring works...just that it makes lineart bigger and easier to resize without losing resolution...
