Nice modeling so far. It will be a pleasure to see textured and finished.

Looking really good man, have you had any other 3d modeling knowlage???


The only thing I could see, and this is being picky mind, the flex looks a little to rigid to me in the way its hanging, but then again a new flex would do that!

Good work on the textures and rendering.

What rendering did you use?

Hey, I'm coming in late to this thread, but my family owns a Dyson... if you need any close-up shots of the details anywhere, just ask. I head home from college on Friday the 18th for Thanksgiving break. I can just snap a few shots of whatever you need, feel free to ask.
