Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

make sure you have raytracing turned on in the render globals. Also make sure reflections are turned on in your material (i reccomend a blinn). if you want to ad fresnel effect you can fake this by mapping the reflectivity with a ramp shader that varies slightly (from black to very dark gray) so that it's more reflective when you're looking at it edgewise.

you'll have to play around with the options a lot to get it just right. for a good example to deconstruct look on highend3d shaders for "silver shader".

have a nice day
