Yamaha CS1-x synth

So, I made this render in 3D Studio MAX in 1997 of my then newly purchased synth. I still have it, but don't use it but thought I would give it a go again in Maya and Maxwell 10 years later with hopefully a better result :p

So the base is complete. Next I'll add edges so that it smoothes out nicely and hopefully I don't find out later that I made some mistakes on the proportions initially...

The whole body now smoothes nicely, so let's start with the keys.

And the keys are done... phew, damn tedious work. So the main part is done now. Next is all the small widgets, thingimagingeys, doo-hickeys, and gadets.
