3D Inspiration

[Tyger]

I thought it would be nice to post some images to inspire those interested in 3d. I've requested for permission to use these peoples images. These talented artists can be found lurking around the forum at cgtalk.com

Thank you to all who have contributed in inspiring us!

Title: Custom Bike - Surreal Huze
Name: Nguyen Anh Dac
Country: Viet Nam
Software: 3ds max </font>


This's the first time I model a bike. I found this bike in www.cyrilhuze.com. When this bike was modeling, 'cause I don't have the blueprintes, so some details wasn't modeled exactly as the real one, and some details was modeled as my favorites.
about rendering, I didn't use any effect, so the material is too much reflect. But I like that.
I'll try to model the next one better. Thanks for your watching and comments. Excuse my terrible English

Here's an inspiring animation done with simple shapes yet quite complex, done with some Jazz as well.

That is what I call stunning. I just cannot work out how they get the lighting so good, let alone the modelling and texturing.
Truely talented individuals.
