Wow. You're an excellent photographer.

On a more serious note, .

Two words, eye candy.

Very cool! The render looks like something out of a superhero movie where the guy goes to some abandoned building and begins working on overtaking the world. Love it.

Ely is right. Here's a short tutorial for a little more detail.

Intersection tutorial.

Uh hu.

Alright, I suck at these but I'll give this one a shot. Here goes.

Busy as a bee?

Cool models. You should try rendering them. Nice work.

Can-O-Bee's? As in canopy?

What material are the black chess pieces made out of? Are they marble pieces? Are they made out of a stained wood?

Very cool. The only thing I would say is that it's kinda' bare. I'd like to see it with a bit more people. That might just be me though.

Cool model. Awesome textures. Love it.

Oooh. Pretty. I especially like the glass pieces. What are the black pieces and the board made out of? Is the border of the table made out of wood?

Interesting. I'll look into this. Thanks.

Hi,

• How do i add a shortcut for doing something customised? E.g. Ctrl+Shift+2 draws a circle of 20inches radius. Another Shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P should Pull it to make a cylinder.

I don't think you can assign short-cuts to a specific length or radius. Assuming you just want a shortcut to save time, try this instead. Hit "c" for circle and click where you want the center of the circle to be. Type in 20 and hit enter. Now hit "p" for push/pull. Click on the cylinder and bring it up however much you want. Then you can select that whole cylinder and right click "group". Then hit "m" for the move tool, hit "ctrl" to copy and move the copy where you want it. Repeat the move/copy for however many cylinders you need. I hope this answers your question.

They are on the upper right hand corner of the main viewport, in there you will see two pull-down menus, one for cameras and the other is for shaders, depending on the video card you have it will only support a few or all. Just try them and see. Chris

Yep. That's what I thought. I guess that means it's my video card. =/ I tried on the other computer but when I tried to install it it gave me an transfer error something or other about denying access to download languages. Then it closes. Blarg.

Are you the same person (going by nickname) from years back that was on the Podium forum and works with Pixar or was it Universal studios?

I believe you are thinking of Disney. This is taken from his tutorial page.

"So who Am I?
I'm a 3d artist with 20 years experience.
I have worked on two major TV series ("Star Trek : Voyager" and "Deep Space nine"). Also worked for Disney, Nickelodeon, and Electronic Arts as a senior artist and an Art Director. I've also done movie trailers and music videos, as well as worked on six animated feature films. So if you ask yourself, does this guy have any experience? Does he know what he is talking about? well what do you think. "

Wow. I just can't figure this out. Downloaded the free version and can't even figure out why characters, scenes, props, etc. show up in plain black or plain white. How do I get the colors/textures? Do I have to apply them myself? How? This is frustating. I can't find any tutorials about this either on their website or elsewhere. Someone with experience, please help.

Hi SN,
Iclone has several shaders to play with, Pixel shader is the best one but in order to be able to use it you have to have a video card that supports it. Iclone run on directx 9c, so you need a card that supports it. Here is a link to the video cards that supports it:

Hope this helps,

Thanks Chris. Where would I find these shaders?

Thanks. I missed that. I'll take a look at these.
