Hi everyone,

I just bought a license after seeing some amazing images rendered with Maxwell, and some of the outstanding talent in this great Forum. I work in the Film Industry creating Visual FX including Matte Paintings, conceptual design, 3D modeling, texturing, lighting and rendering and Architechural sets for movies, and I have been dealing with Mental Ray which is very time consuming to dial in with all the shading and rendering settings. Anyways, these are some renders of a Data Robot from a personal project of mine, and couple architectural elements I have been building. Thought I'll share them here with the community. I am also looking for more tutorials on texturing within Maxwell. Again I just started using this the last couple of days. C&C welcome. I use Maya fand Zbrush or all my modeling work

A huge thanks to the amazing team of Maxwell for making such great rendering system available to us. You guys are brilliant !!!

BELOW ARE THE VERY FIRST RENDERS I HAVE DONE USING MAXWELL. The best GI I have seen so far.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome and kind words. I will keep posting images in here. Again, I just started using Maxwell a week ago, so I still have much to learn . . Also I would really appreciate it, if anyone knows the best way to create an alpha channel in the render. I do save my files as tif, and check the alpha on under Render Options, yet I still can not see an alpha channel. Do you have to seperately render that out ? Thanks in advance everyone !

alp great images and welcome..Love the mechanic insect!

yep once you check your alpha on.. it will be rendered as a seprate image and you'll have to comp it in post...

happy maxwellin!

EDIT.. i do use jpgs mostely and with jpgs it will render a seperat file out for an alpha..

Im fairly certain that this is also true for tiff.. look were your images are rendered and you should see a file with prefix alpha_
so file will be "alpha_filename.jpg"

Alp, alpha channel is saved as an additional file in the same format under same path with the image output.
