This one’s for Rich. He was kind enough to share his”Joker” model I had to do at least one render with it…. A quick Twilight render , put the “grime” to it in Affinity Photo. Gothem City’s always gloomy and dirty looking right? Still will be messing about with the base model and posting results in “work in progress” …. 
@Mike-Amos …. Mr Mike, keep your chin up. Boats and canoes can be a real challenge. They look pretty simple but there’s not a straight line in them and it seems no two curves are the same. 
Thanks Rich. I’ll see about overlaying some old school graffiti in there.
@panixia Fantastic shoe ! Always amazed by your modeling. 
@Mike-Amos Mike, you’re not inflexible. We’re both from the generation that did all our learning from books. I have a hard time trying to learn from videos also. Although I have a number of books on learning Blender. I’m hesitant to recommend any by name as they’re for older versions of Blender. My top recommendation is make sure any books you might get are for the version of Blender you have installed.
@majid Wow really like this one. The heavier contrast between the light and shadow areas really adds a more dramatic feel to the image.
@L-i-am Let’s just say I’ve stuck some toes in the Blender water. Sort of hit a mental wall with my modeling last year. Had to step away for a while. Trying to get back into the swing of things including diving back into Blender.
@L-i-am Excellent job. Only critique is the brightness of the garage space seems to take away from the more somber overall look of the render…. Take it for what it’s worth….. Everybody sees and interprets renders differently. Still all in all a great job.
For better or worse… downloaded a few images of this door. Started on a model. If I can get it figured out. Plan is to post it up for whoever wants to give it a spin in a render.
