Further progress (see image) - Page 3

Well after much fuss I've decided to go a different route with the bike scene. The gold I had the bike running through just didn't look the way I wanted it to no matter what I did. I think I'll go with a night city scene.

Edit: Making a run to Bongo's Books to pick me up an AC3D how-to manual.

will work for bolts :lol:

Hey Woody - is there really a Bongos Books with a how to manual for AC3D? If so - how about a Web Site or phone number.

LOL, well normally I would, but if I reveal my secret sources everyone will buy them up and I wont have any.

BTW, how do you like my fancy futuristic puter with a clear liquid crystal screen?

Wow! Excellent stuff!

Should we have a new section on the forum:

"AC3D Work in progress/Gallery"

?

LOL, thanks. Actually I should take it easy because I'm pretty limited on bandwidth. Earthlink doesn't give me a whole lot to mess with.

If you're the web master of this site it would be easy to make a gallery. Just duplicate your index page and rename it to gallery. Clean off the center area of the page to make room for photos and update all your page links. Make a folder and name it gallery_photos or something like that to upload the images to.
Of course I don't know how much bandwidth you have to play around with either.

Ok as you can tell, I created the computer to be part of this scene which I just finished. I think that I'm finally satisfied enough with this one to submit it to 3D World magazine ( thanks Andy for the head's up! ). I'm going to have to mail this one in because it's a whopping 20 megs in size. I gotta say though that the original Targa file looks great.
If they accept this image and publish it, that would totally blow me away.

That looks great Woody but it's perhaps a little dark? I had to turn up the contrast on my monitor to get a good look.

I think the image of the man on the wild bike is great. Most of the 3D World images feature a person or creature, I think they would really like it.

Ok I'll think of something. I think that maybe it's a little dark because of different monitor adjustments. I've been staring at a light table for so many years that I think I've lost sensitivity to light lol.
Thanks for the input.
