This is a challenge that Alex Lindsay at DV Garage gave me. I thought I'd pass it on to you. It's more challenging than it might seem at first. Create a single object. No background, no set, no nothing. Just a single object. Use modeling and texturing to make it photorealistic. Sounds easy doesn't it. But it's far harder than it appears. I've been working on mine for about a month now, and I picked a ridiculously simple object.

I like the idea of this one...I may even try it since texturing is one of my favorite things:) GeorgeD

Well, the reason it's so hard is that nothing will look photorealistic in just pure blackness; you never see anything like that so your brain won't believe it. Setting is an important part of photorealism.
