This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

lol....Thinking thinking still?
Nah, just had far too much work on to do anything, but have settled on an idea this afternoon, and have made a start on a proxy version of it to try and get the shape right.
I've decided on a speeder bike type machine, like the ones in Return of the Jedi, so when I've got some more progress made (probably a day or two before the finals date....lol) I'll post some wips.
I'm liking what everyone's been coming up with so far though!

Actually made a start on it finally today, between working, when I had a break here and there. Not easy to design two totally different things at the same time! I wont get any more time until monday to do any more, but hopefully I'll make some better progress then.

It feels great to be back after such a long time! I realized earlier it's been about 5 months since I even opened Maya! I am going to do my best to stop letting work run my life and make time for art once again. Lol

Anyhow, I'll do a bit more tonight when I get in, and a load tomorrow afternoon/night so hopefully a better update then.

Got a little more done this evening as I had a couple of hours spare when I got in. I'll try to make a little more progress tomorrow hopefully, just have to see how work goes in the morning and with a bit of luck I may get a few hours in the afternoon to do some more.

Thanks for the input Bullet, I had thought the bars were looking a little too thin, but when I fattened them up they looked wrong too. So what I've done is add a cover over the middle section, which would be protection for the brake cables (see bottom image).
Done slightly more to it, still a little way to go though.
