      Here is an idea I got from another thread... then after messing around with the design in SU I decided to actually give a go at rendering... I choose Kerkythea as my rendering program... I'm still getting used to it and I've got a long way to go...

      Anyway, my family owns a construction company (no, i don't work for them) and I've always wanted to put together a simulation excavation site or something along those lines...

      here we go (the first is a Clay render, and the other two are somewhat following the actual paint scheme:

                            Very nice modeling. Now all you need is some dirt or some missing paint on the nice paint job.

                              thanks for all the compliment! I've been swamped with work, but I'll try to get a few free minutes to try to update them...

                              thanks! i'm trying to gather a whole arsenal of construction/excavation equipment... i'd love to create a scene with dirt and such... if only I knew how I would ๐Ÿ˜„

                                When you are done with the model if you like I could texture it with some rusted flaking paint, and some tainted metals for you. That way when I return the model you will have the textures to apply to the other models in your collection.

                                If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

                                  yes, these models could come in handy one day... hope you will consider sharing in the components section ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                  ps... don't forget the thin glass shader in KT! and inserting the infinite plane model to get some shadows. ๐Ÿ˜„
