Hey pretty cool!!

Great use of MotionBlur!

How long did the renderingtime need? What sampling level was reached?

Beautiful work Justo! My grandfather used to make model beam engines and similar things from scratch using his trusty lathe. There are still several back home at my parents house.

Could you give some info on the material settings and lighting set-up? It would be really appreciated.

Cheers,

Nik

Very professional work again. :wink:

Only I would try to use less reflection on plastics like the armrest or the wheels (maybe a drak grey could be nice).

You ask for noise and mxi. I have tested a white rectangle emitter and an emitter with a white MXI texture - no difference.
But you get more noise if you use much polygons on the emitter (a problem of MXI spheres) or strong contrast in small details (f. ex. HDRI from a full midday sun or a tunnel HDRI with two bright openings). Better is to use blur HDRIs, if your scene allow it.

Justo, I'm not sure which software you use (you could add signature with software + computer facts), but maybe this rhino stuff is interesting for you:

Thanks for the info Justo - every tip helps! I should be visiting my parents in a few weeks time so I'll take some photos then. Indeed there should be complete sets of drawings somewhere.

Cheers,

Nik

Great toy, I want to get one too. :wink:

Suggestion: at the moment I read a photo book and the author write about a object-ground contrast. I feel, in the last image is here a problem. I would try to use a background not in the same color mood like the golden metal and/or let the background be blury per DOF. At the moment, the machine show much details and the background - no detail contrast.

veery good looking ones. only things i don't like the lighting and reflections in the second image that much, and the chair material might look problably look better with a bit of bump.
