This is my first pass at the Mad Science Challenge. I used a camera focal length of 5mm and moved the camera in really close for a unique perspective on the scene. One mesh light from front-left-high, rendered to 1100 S/p. (postwork in PSP to despeckle)

I want to do some texture work, as well as fill in the environment a little (a background or some wall textures). I'm not very comfortable with texture work so we'll see how it goes :)

 

Cheers,
