Beautiful render, especially the first one

@d12dozr: I consider the time I spend in these experiments and solving other people's questions as "training". @Rocky: This girl is the only animated character I've been able to find, so you'll be seeing her a lot until I learn to rig and animate my own. @Richard: The dancing log at the end was really odd, but then again I often get similar oddities with SketchyPhysics. @David_H: Let's hope "SketchyPhysics 5 - Monster Truck Madness" features car damage. Thanks for the comments. I think I'll drop by the SP forum, as I still know next to nothing about it, except how to make things crash. The girl was animated by phonic, a Japanese guy who is a sheer genius.

lol fletch I just forgot....no other reason. textured versions will be proper windows though-thats why i asked you which material template was best to use for externals-its for this project. hvanessen: i just added the text in photoshop...you can add text in pretty much any image editing software even paint.

I like it.

Nice renders - i like them all - some of the technical criticisms go way over my head and I mean way over!!! Is lens flare wide bottomed trousers for a man called Lenny!!!???

No orgelf. Basic model in blender + UV maps > exported to zbrush 2 500 000 poly there) > detailed modeling there > imported to blender as ~600 000 poly > baked UV textures > then exported again from zbrush as ~10 000 poly to blender > highpoly baked UV maps reassigned to lowpoly model > exported to SU as 3ds. Do you think now that this is complicated? Its not really. Its the only reasonable way.

Really very nice work mate! I would consider maybe a bit more ambient lighting to the foreground would have occurred in real situation with the illumination of your sky and slow shutter speed.

@thanks a lot so any comment abt renders?? waiting for comments..

Oh man.....I should know better than to post a question in the early morning when I've only had ONE coffee! Doh! Thanks Eric

I owned one of these babies in 1969, same color. Seems to me $5.00 would buy all the beer, gas, and smokes (I smoked then) you needed for the weekend. In 58 it was even better, although airfare hasn't really gone up. Really fantastic work [image: Jm9h_Picture83.png]

@edmund said: I was wondering how you did the grasspave stuff. It looks great! Hi ! I drew the pavement in Sketchup and filled the grass part with the instancing brush in Kerkythea using Majid's grass pack. PM me if you need more details ! Glad you liked it !

What do you know about radiosity in blender? http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:Manual/Lighting/Radiosity/Rendering

@unknownuser said: ..Your white tiles textures in the ground are too big to look real. ..David totally agree, also the carpet seems oversized. about lighting, I believe is too diffuse, exibition environment normally has many strong lights and relative shadows and reflections all around the stand; metallic items don't need more reflection

Cheeky bugger. You didn't tell me that you'd put these on here. Very nice models, wow, amazing, blah blah blah, I've already told you all this... He he. Keep up the great work Joe
