Hello everyone, Here is a pic of a metal case I modelled. Im now at the texturing stage and Im in a need of a few suggestions. I want a sleek metal look, not necessarilly a shiny new look, I used a few old metal textures also. My problem is that Im afraid the details are getting lost because the textures are too similar. I would welcome any suggestions anyone might have, oh and same goes for the lighting. In this pic I used the preset tree-point lighting wizard (with a few tweaks on one of the spots). In the final project this case is going to be used on a different background (basically a flat color) as a kind of detailed icon (it will be smaller also, only about a couple of inches wide). So lighting comments are also most welcome. Thanks for the input. H&B
