Great Liam.

Thanks Ken. I used a number of point-lights in Thea, with varying colours, to light the ceiling. Using coloured lights to add different tones helps to take away from the clinical feel of the renders... I think..

Yeah, I saw the price tag...unless I win the lottery, it's out of the realm of possibility for me. The demo videos make it look slick, and at that price it should be, but who knows what all went into making those videos (kinda like the commercials for cancer treatment centers we have here, with the small print at the bottom stating "results not typical").

Thanks. Mental Ray did most of the work here. It's easy to use.

Thanks for the feedback, that is, someone is watching No one knows the cause of my problem? Trimble did not answer my question. Well, it must remain so

Good start!

@ken28875 said: Awesome models and renders, Chirs! It's great to see another fellow concept artist in this forum. Your design reminds me of some sci-fi conceptual models I did for a MMO called Defiance (there is also a tv series on SyFy channel). Cheers! _KN Hi Ken, cool designs! I like your tech, nice to see them here

Thought I'd have a little fun in my downtime...yes. I consider this fun. Clearly, I have serious problems! Anita https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQI5ODpUvyo

Thanks Ken... allanx

Very nice. Looks comfy too. If I had the time and space I would attempt to build it but alas I won't have any of either for a while.
