Looks good Watcher900. I have a small version of one of those. Mine inches tall maybe 14 to 18 inches tall not the big honking one lile in the movie.
Can you walk it around the room to where you need more light? Fun image.
Really nice job in rendering it!
I like it very much.
But, the base just doesn't look right to me.
The bottom part of the base, can't be wider than the top part, considering we're looking at it from towards the top.
What you could do, is to draw a circle, then use the 3D tool to tilt the circle to the angle you want - and that way you'll have the correct perspective.
However, from the base upwards, the drawing is very good indeed.
Thank's Rik, Ron, GWP, & Wizard for your comments. I had trouble with the base as you can see, and I was at a loss as to how to get it right. I'll give your suggestion a try Rik. Thanks for the help.
Here it is with the new base. Thanks for the tip Rik.
