Thank you John and Gary. I will take your example apart and give it a go.

Can someone tell me the easiest way to make a piece of pipe like this?

Thanks

Wire image of the box phone. I am working on a couple of other phone models and will post them later.

Thanks for your comments guys, I appreciate them all. Modelled and rendered in C4D. Nothing fancy here, mostly primitives tweaked and hypernurbed into shape. The box texture is a walnut colored...

Comments, crits appreciated.

Just playing around.

Thanks for your comments everyone. Yeah, 65 Mustang. Gidgit I agree on the quarter panel thing you mentioned but I think I am going to restart this. Looking for some better blueprint drawings as what...

Hey, good guess Mike. I've been staring at it for so long that it's starting to lose focus for me. Besides my reference drawings are pretty bad and I have had to restart a few times. Good exercise...

Test render, man this is hard. Comments and crits appreciated.

Smoothed mesh, can anyone tell me what make of car it might end up being.

My first try, getting severe eye strain and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Looking good you all. Here's my last try at this. Cubes and bubbles. Mike, I expected something else when I read "my favorite bubbles"? http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Soquili, yeah there is an ice cube in the glass, but the coloring is not coming out the way it should. Thanks

Arnold

Nice work here you guys. I took another kick at it with caustics.

Arnold

Yeah Soquili, know what you mean. I've been playing with this for hour too and just can't seem to get it right. Refraction index is set at 1.33.

Nice stuff, Soquili. Had a look at your homework page, good to see the evolution from primintives to wheel.

Arnold

Very nice, Ivan. It looks a lot like it was made in Sketch-up. Does Silo work the same way?

Arnold

Finally I turned H/N back on and this is what I got. A lot of it has to do with material and camera angle and lighting, but that's the basics.

Next step.

gidgit:
I started my vase with a spline and a lathe nurb. Then I dropped it into a H/N. See attatched pics.

Arnold

You're right Gidgit, this is an interesting study. The method I gave before is not good for this situation as it does add geometry to the model. I had a hard time finding it because it superimposes...
