My real name is Thomas McCann, I was born in Buffalo N.Y. in October 1952. I currently reside in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia U.S.A.,........I attended the Maryland School of Art and Design and studied Fine and Commercial art. I began working in traditional media at age 7 (mainly pencil sketches), then worked with watercolors and arcylics in high school. I started working with digital media about 11 years ago (1996), using Metacrations "Detailer", a 3D paint application. I currently use mainly Bryce 6.1 and Cinema 4D 8.1 and 3D Studio Max 4.2 for modeling and tweaks. I am currently learning Rhino and Zbrush. Thanks for your attention.

this is a gorgeous render, it looks incredibly realistic! i had a similiar problem with renders feezing half-way through, make sure you have the latest version of vue (that fixed it for me). can't wait to see the whole render :)

Search the forum for posts by me Search for Wintop. Freezes? I've rendered a whole city of shiny buildings and freezes well It may seem like it but the reflecting off shinny stuff slows Vue to a crawl but it doesn't not freeze or crash it eventually does render, You got to have patience. You might want to check the proccessor useage by Vue before you conclude the program has stopped. Chances are it didn't freeze and you stopped it cause it was taking to long to render a single line. Or you killed it trying to get it to update the screen when it was infact calculating out that line. Like if you start clicking on things while it's rendering you surely can crash the program. Checking processor useage is the best way. There is a few links I posted to programs to check Vue while it's rendering. I use Wintop but there is plenty more around free too I might add. Try grouping the object to cutdown on the calculating. The reflections are killing it speed wise. And with three light sources. Well it's going to take some time for sure to render.

Despite all the problems you've faced, this really is excellent, it's way better than anything I could do. Realism is very astute, and texturing detail is gorgeous.

Excellent work. Just a perfect setup with great surfaces. But why 300dpi? Are you goint to print it? Dunno, could be the problem, depending on memory usage...
