Hey MeshWeaver,
Been lookin' through your stuff online and I think its fantastic. You're a great modeler.

I think it's time you step up to the next level make these projects of yours really photorealistic.
I heard once that a great CG image is 25% modeling 25% texturing and 50% lighting. You've got the modeling down pretty solid. (Just remember with your vertices - less is often more).

Don't shy away from making your own normal/spec/diffuse maps, they're pretty easy do after you do it a couple times. Some more texturing work on your Flashlight render and it would be hard to tell that it wasn't real. That's about the same with all of your other recent projects.

Keep it up Meshweaver!

you know, I've been thinking the same thing for several months - time to take everything to the next level :nod: I've actually been planning on trying an external render engine for the NES project to try and get it as photo-realistic as I can...

I wasn't really planning on this, nor did I think it would happen, but I think that my last 3 big projects (flashlight, tape gun and NES) are going to be the cornerstones of this new level of Blending. I've really learned a lot while doing them, a lot more than with previous big projects :nod:

anyway, thanks a lot for your support and encouragement, ssawyer! :thanks:
