J man's scratched chrome is a good one for things like that ....

Tried the J man chrome, the jury is out on it at the moment. Probably my set up.

As far as the rest of the image is going, I am pretty happy. Working in a few subtle details, such as the dirt and scratches on the black panel under the pots (these are very subtle, but do make a difference).

Changed the lighting again...

Good, very good!!

That last one is looking great!! seriously

[d7mcfc]

Thanks SandyK and Nico!

I am really enjoying working into this.

Slightly larger render. Changed the colour of the pedal to an approximate match to the real pedal. It is a strange orange to perfect. I will get there.

Shows a bit more detail...

Much better, impressive

[d7mcfc]

thank you very much sms!

Going to add my Gibson Les Paul to the image at some point.

[JCAddy]

Nice update. What kind of Paul do you own?

[d7mcfc]

It's a Cherry sunburst Les Paul Classic. Bought it because of the retro thin neck. it's great to play.

Also got an Epiphone Explorer, Fender Jaguar, Charvel Model 3a and a Line 6 Variax. Thought of modelling them all at some time.

[JCAddy]

Sweet.

I've got a Les Paul Special unfilled wood w/ black stain. I love it.

I also own a custom built Tele.

Best guitar I have owned.

[d7mcfc]

I believe the Les Paul to be the King of Guitars!

I'd love a tele though. The Seventies Custom with the Strat Headstock!

Hey man, this is looking really nice The texturing's sexy! I think you've just convinced me to find the time to finish mine

Cheers,
Dr Merman

[d7mcfc]

Ta, pleased you like it.

Can't wait to see the Ibanez image completed. That was one hell of a model!

[DrMerman]

Thanks man. Time's just not been on my side for the last few months, but soon! I'm thinking of modelling my (fingers crossed) next guitar as well...a beaten up '66 Daphne Blue Fender Jaguar.....one day it shall be mine, oh yes, it shall be mine

[d7mcfc]

Jags are great. I was lucky enough to be given one by a friend who has a collection of about 15 Jags and Jazzmasters. He went off the colour???

I willingly acepted the said gift!
