Is that a 3d print or a very realistic 3d render?

This is really nice, I love how they look like kit models or something.

Wow! great Mental Ray renders!

Is that based of the Mike Nash setup? I would love to learn how to get that going for Mental ray…

Keep 'em coming! :smiley:

great mental ray render, any tips for that ?

THanks guys! And his render styles were a great inspiration for em. I really like the look of the clay style renders! Um the render isnt actually anything to complicated. Theres one light which I have hooked up with a photometric filter, and an IBL light. The biggest thing is making sure you have objects to bounce the light and give greater illumination. The ground does a huge part of that. And make sure you have final gather so it illuminates everything.

http://www.zbrushcentral.com/showthread.php?83524-Make-it-look-real-(With-mental-ray) heres a great link with alot of the same info i use! It just takes some messing with. For the shader, my shader was a MIA material with the roughness about half way up and some tooning on the reflectivity.
Hope this all helps guys!

Hi, wow that’s very cool as a beginner!
And as a beginner I get this issue when sculpting :).

How to avoid this! Thanks.

Haha thanks man, appriciate it.
Ya, that proble is caused by insufficient geometry. I would suggest using the zremesher, and that will give you clean topology . But before that youll probably wanna duplicate that mesh and once you have the new mesh you can subdivide it a couple of times and reproject the old mesh onto the clean topology! :slight_smile: haha hope that was clear, and helped!

So I havent posted in here in quite a while! But here are some rather old pieces I made for my demo reel. I made these about a year ago. I post some of the new stuff soon. :slight_smile: Enjoy!
And you can find a link below to my demo reel from last year as well!
