stop being so good at hard surface modeling, haha;)

working on the back-

quick render (modo internal renderer, full GI, 1 min 12 s.)

As well as a test reder of the entire ski so far (again, just fooling around with Modo's internal renderer. Full GI, DOF, 2 min. 33 s.)

I honestly cant remember too much about bindings, been a while since i've been skiing... but your modelling is amazing man, very detailed. Beautiful renders too. Can you show any ref images you've used?

Thanks for the positive feedback guys :)

Here's the ref's i've been using:

Freestyle binding (close to the kind I have on my freestyle skiis)

Race Binding (the exact same kind as I have on my GS race skiis, except mine are Volkl ;))

The ski itself that I'm trying to model (the one that I have and I use for freestyle... admittedly not the best freestyle ski, but it's pretty cheap and it hasn't broken even after all the torture that I put it through :p)

Render so far (materials not at all final, and no textures yet ;))

render in Indigo... screw modo haha
