Another one, I hope this one will be useful too ( for me it is ) [image: frigider1vj1.th.jpg] In position: [image: maurice5np1.th.jpg] fridge

tats awsme dude...i think its too much polished..i think a rough finish will be better for that heavy duty machine !!(jst a opinion!!)

Thanks Richard, I will see if the shadow filter helps. I generally use photoshops levels and curves for adjusting tone. Then I'll often use an Alien Skin plugin called Exposure 2 (http://www.alienskin.com/exposure/) to adjust all my exposure and saturation settings. It's a great plugin if you ever get a chance to check it out. I'm also wondering if I should adjust my Vray settings so that I can switch on the SRGB toggle, as I've heard this will be more true to a monitors color range. Foxar, My card is a NVidia 9500GS. I'll have to look into adjusting it through their software. My monitor is an LG Flatron 22" with a 10000:1 fine contrast ratio. Everything else appears normal when I browse or look at other people's work on my monitor. Is there a way to self calibrate?

thanks guys.

Very nice.

Ah! See, I did not know that! Thank you!

Nice work, that give us new ideas . MALAISE

Thanks Fred, for the renderer I've used fryrender for the final image....which has a very nice plug-in for Sketchup allanx

I just finished the zaku II it can be downloaded in my sketchup warehouse, why not check out the rest of my models whaile you are at it http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=42983826603e39c2f172129d0033deda&ct=mdsa&prevstart=0

Hi everybody, Here is my last render of the same scene (with somme changes). [image: nsQG_test13.jpg]

Andy, Do you know the work of Iakov Chernikhov (Tchernikhov)? I can't find his works online that this reminds me of, but you obviously tap into a similar inspiration. I have a book with many of his images of similar themes, although your graphic style here is different. Look forward to more. Peter

Nice going Stephen. Keep up the good work. Interesting mods.

This one is kind of a stretch....definitely not as cool of a composition as the first....but, it will serve its purpose i guess. i will do a workflow write up soon... [image: ncccafev1020609mg1.jpg]

Hi Ray, Unfortunately I can't, since it isn't my model... I feel it would be wrong of me sharing it... If you look at the first post in this thread, you'll see that the model belongs to Michael Firkins... I suggest that you send a PM to him and ask... His username here at SCF is "firkins"... I can also recommend that you check the 3D Warehouse, where you can find many nice looking Mustang's...

Reminds me a lot of team fortress 2 stuff, which is certainly no bad thing. nicely done

I like it a lot, SS. At least there's a lot to consider in this building. Only thought for now: I am not sure what standing on the balcony would feel like, tucked up under that roof. Perhaps the top floor or the overhang has skylights? In regards to the image, so many people are coming and going. I've tried to think of what sort of building would be so busy in the front. The types that come to mind are colleges and courthouses, not necessarily office buildings. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to more.

Thanks Dave!, i'm using "Brush Strokes Wide" Style...

Interesting, it reminds me of a house on the Flintstones.
