    Not really tech related, but thought it would be worth posting:

    Scooby made the first post to open the thread and he didn't restrict it to cases. It sort of grew that way. Post your stuff. Modeling is tough and any examples should be shared.

    In the 'Basic Glasses' library, I slightly modified the 'Ruby' glass with the materials editor to give it a deeper red. :thumb:

    I think a video of me creating my case design would be extremely boring and very long. It takes many hours to produce something this complex..... :D

    well, it seems i'm also going to need to learn how to render, my SU model came 3rd in the first round of the MNPC contest :D

    Early attempts lead to this:
    [​IMG]

    Which is where i seem to be hitting a skill wall. All my attempts at this point actually made it look worse :(

    If any of you SU+KT masters (Mick maybe? :worried: ) could give me some ideas on how to progress, i'd be delighted. I'm particularly bugged by how to properly set up some lighting, i just cant even seem to find the right buttons. Plus i have no idea what all the render methods do, and i cant seem to set a background or get the carbon skin of the case to look anywhere near acceptable. Yeah, i need a lot of help :eeek:

    Any comments here are welcome, but to prevent going offtopic too much you could also hit me up in a PM and we can skype or msn or whatever you prefer ;)

    Thanks in advance!

    By the way, i have an Intel I7-860 running at 4GHz on all 8 threads just aching to strech it's legs, so rendering power really isn't an issue :D
    As a means of thanking you, i could even render some scenes for you on my PC if you want to, it's mostly idle during the night.
