Description

My first LW scene render. I worked really hard on texturing this to be photographic quality. I came close, but I think the cement textures fell a little short. Overall, I'm very pleased with this image. Skateboard mesh is downloadable @ Simply Lightwave

Thanks. The lighting was achieved using Eki's pak. It uses the spinning light trick, which you can also achieve using luxigons. But no, no radiosity. Just faked it.

Tnanks for the comments. My son had come to work with me on Christmas Eve, and we had started this together. He's 12 and a skateboarder(pretty good too) so we were thinking of what we could do, and he wanted something for his wall, so we came up with this.

I started with Bryce in early 97 thru 99, took a year break, then in the beginning of 2002 bought truespace 5.0 from a friend. Liked it and hated it, upgraded to trueSpace 6.0 then in Spetember 2002 I bought LW. I sucked at Bryce/Poser. I liked trueSpace because it showed me that I could actually model meshes, but hated its quarks, so moved up to LW. Now I can model way better and render at an O'K level..Thanks for the compliments.
