Hmmmmmm, Not sure how to respond to this one. 1.) There is an environment on the resource CD called showroom which is just for what you're describing. If you go and look at my spider picture in the gallery, you'll see what it's like. It has a light to fake radiosity, a light for hilight and a regular light plus a simple reflective floor. 2.) The environment my X-Wing is in is a simple flat plane with one spotlight off center, edge fall off set to 100%, the brightness turned up a tad and the soft shadows are on. I don't remember it having a white background though. I did put a mirror in it for a little while but I've abandoned that. The new CD is going to be out in February so I'd wait if you were planning on getting it. -Kix
