Codex Chamber (WIP)

Hey, all. I thought I'd drop a thread regarding my WIP digital set for my fanfilm, The Hunt for the Codex.

In the movie, this is the cavern where the Codex has rested for the last 4,000 years.

After working in 3DS Max 8 for a few hours, this is what I've come up with:

Updates as the project progresses.

Looks like you're off to a good start though.

 

I dig.

I almost never post here, but I'm putting this one here to say I like it.
Get the WIP closer to the concept art, and I'd say you're in business so to speak.

WOuld you like some helP?

 

I can happily do the modeling, but the raytracing/texturing/lighting/rendering, I would welcome any volunteers.

And thank you to everyone who posted.
