Nice start. Can't find anything wrong with that (assuming later you will add the lights and details and stuff).
A little test : [image=http://prodgj.free.fr/tutopp/images/sabre3d/previewlukesabreep6_testincrut01f2da60.jpg] (Google picture) The mesh isn't finish, and shadows, ligthing, are very bad.... A little test of textures !
Nice model, keep working. I mean keep design and detail it, in that pic it doesnt look pretty real yet. good work anyway /CA W.
Thanks for the reply Evolution of textures : [image=http://prodgj.free.fr/tutopp/images/sabre3d/lukesabreep6_01ee85c2.jpg] Do you like textures ?
I liked the shadow, in the composition picture. I have one advice which will improve a lot the realism, chamfer or smooth the edges, their so sharp(default), especialy when so close up. Lookfilms
All the black areas of your lightsaber seem like plastic. I'd lower the specular on them, brighten them a teeny bit, and find a a rust texture or soemthing to dirty it up a little.
Thanks for comments, A new picture : [image=http://prodgj.free.fr/tutopp/images/sabre3d/lukesabreep6_02719905.jpg] I think the mesh and textures are almost finished...
[image=http://prodgj.free.fr/tutopp/images/sabre3d/sabrelaserlukeep6_017ea204.jpg] The model is available here (3ds max 8 file) : http://gjproduction.free.fr/fanfilmssw/ressources_index.php#modeles3d If you need it for a fanfilm...
id make it available as an .obj file or something more widely accepted on several 3d apps(not just for my own selfish use, lol) but .max files can only be used in max.
