This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Just a minor point
, i would model a pair of stonking great big hydraulic rams for both the legs below the knee, it just looks like it wants to fall over (or are they modeled at the back can't see)(writtting that seemed a bit petty)
Still think its REAL good though & thanks for sharing...

I really want to progress it through Maya...if I can figure out how to turn the Rhino file into a Maya file...
plus I need to learn how to texture
I get out of school in 3 days so I need to figure out how to get that big ole file off the school puter and stick it at home...

I wish I actually had been taught how to use Rhino and Maya...only been tinkering with both for the past month or two...that would of made it a easier...
***EDIT***
FYI if you look at the center torso(rotating part)...it is colliding with the back of the gattling gun on the chest...I have already fixed that....I saw them touching and realized I forgot to move back the bottom part of the hip/torso...so it's all fixed
***EDIT***
The mech is suppost to be belt fed from the 2 giant ammo boxes on it's back...but to my knowledge it is impossible to model a curved ammo belt in Rhino...I tried atleast 200 times...

what i know about Rhino - you could write on the back of a stamp, but can you "duplicate transform?"Originally posted by painterdan
There are the lil rams in the back...

in maya 5.0, if you group an object/s and then goto "edit" - "duplicate transform" the object will be duplicated, move/rotate the duplicated object,
hit Duplicate transform again (or the key "g") & the NEXT duplicated object will be the exact distance or rotation as the first object, you can use this for things like wheel nuts, if you divide 360 degrees into the amount of wheel nuts you want, move it, then dup-trans form, &, as long as your pivot point is the centre of the wheel you will get a pefect rotation everytime, of equal degrees. like on my model of the car.
If you want a quick tut, i'll knock one up for you.
