CatchUp - iPhone

no... not joking... Cell Phones are pure evil... why on earth would someone in my line of work want people to be able to get hold of me more often than they already do?

and then if you don't answer, they get irrate, like you're ignoring them... I had a cell phone a few years back, it was pure hell. I still have that one in my truck, it's turned off, but charged up just in case I need to call 911, which is free here.

back to the topic.

cheffrey, that's looking really good! I have one comment though. everything seems so clinical, so smooth, so mirror-like. maybe work on that a little to get a more believable image.

Not clinical at all Juju, I just waxed my truck. Ok, I think there are a couple water spots on it.

Nice images cheffy.

Hi Cheffey,

Great renderings man !
Are you planning to model more of these nice products?
The modeling is really good, clean and pragmatical.
I wish I had the same skills as you have.

(Maybe a little hint on the chrome using Podium: I found out that metals render better if you assign a very dark grey to the chrome objects and add refelection 100% to them.)
Cheers,
Kwistenbiebel

Biebel,
thank you for the tip and i do have a few more of these in the pipeline. I'm courting a graphic/industrial design firm for freelance work. so, i need some more experience with this type of modeling.
don't say those nice things about my modeling skills, this was the first real product i've modeled. Most of everything else has been Architecture.
I'm hoping to spread my wings a bit though.

Thanks Mike & Tom,
As you can tell Boo keeps his truck as clean as his models

Updated renderings using Podium.
Thanks Biebel for the inspiration.

cheffey · 24 Mar 2008, 13:33

thanks Eric, I definitely owe it to Biebel.
here are two more sitting on top of the hood of Eric's truck... just don't ask me to pan out.

Juju,
thanks for the comments, i worked on this image and did some post process.
i'm not sure really what i'm doing with it. it may be too muddied up at this point.
