They are round of course, but as you say it may be hard to see in the above images.

I decided to finish this model to have a pic to send as a x-mas greeting card. So here it is.

I'm quite satisfied with it, except the hat, it doesn't look like cloth. Can anyone give any hints what values for diffuse, tranlucense etc. are good for clothing? Right now It's a lambert with a texturemap of a rug, and the same map as a slight bump.

Diffuse: 0.8
Translucence 0.24
everything else default

I'm using the software render with 6-7 spotlights.

oh, and don't mind the uuuuugly shadow. Will increase the rays for the final render.

Added some snowy hills, a bit overlit though on the character. Don't have time to re-render, gotta zzzzzleep.....

to be honest with you i liked it better without hte snowy hills. the hills look sort of barren and dark and depressing to me. maybe model an xmas tree in there with him? (although i know thats another kinda big project)

Looks nice although like Element_Khaos mentioned the scene looks very dark and depressing...

Hehe, yeah it may not be the happiest looking xmas picture. But it's supposed to be at night... but I'll add some stars to the sky in photoshop later, maybe it'll make it look a little better. So, anyone has any tips for a good clothing material? Otherwise I'm done with this, gotta send it soon.

I Think the hat (if that's what you need cloth material for) looks just fine... Nice model btw, Futurama rocks!

Wow, that's awesome, great job! You should plave him in a frame from futurama in the exact same position and place on screen, make it sort of like that 3d simpsons episode, except backwards!

"We don't actually need to know that the main character has a past. All we need to know is that he has an objective and a lot of people are going to die and a lot of innocent inanimate objects are going to be destroyed and blown up before he can complete that objective."

you should model the spaceship in the back. that should be pretty easy to model

hehe... well there is no time, I must send my x-mas card today. I've posted the final render in "finished work"

i wouldnt worry about it i would be pretty pleasantly suprised if i recieved that card in the mail

Nice one Blazer...

I had a go at making bender a while back and this was my attempt...I think he looks much better with a Santa hat though : )
