hey, i was inspired by rubber chickens scene tutorial and wanted to try on for myself.. i know the texturing is a little stretched and off.... but i think what i really want to learn from this is atleast the basics of lighting.. in my night shot can someone explain how to make realistic moonlight? all i did was just dim down my ambient light which i'm sure isnt right... thanks in advance

Cool looking scene there, glad my tutorial inspired you user added image

Vedic king's moon looks really good, although it could use a tad bit of blue.
The way I would go about making a moon is a simple sphere, apply a bump map for a moon like textue, and then simply mess around with shaders using ramps etc and then add a glow.

thanks guys.. i'll get this down soon enough.. but in the meantime i've been keeping myself buisy with an old project..i'll be bumping it up the list here shortly.. so keep your eyes peeled

vedic kings: no need to apologize.. in fact your night scene would make a pretty cool wallpaper if you were to blow it up to 1024X768

Pony: as far as it looking bad up close.. i probly could have used better things to texture with.. but i wanted to mainly practice lighting techniques

LOL Sorry that come out a bit wrong didn't it. I was really trying to say how good the distance looks with something that I wouldn't have thought to use becouse of the close distance stuff of it dosn't hold up so good. Its all a great job. Not to mention, haveing seans hold up under difrent lighting is great.

well i learned that unless i did something wrong.. spot lighting wont give me the effect i'm looking for... if anything i think it may be ambient lighting.. does anyone know i how i can turn the lighting more blue or purpleish?
