Yeah it's not the prettiest one I've ever done, still needs refining.

It's a combination of lighting, materials and rendering plugins... that's just a basic test render there.

If you put more effort in you can get things like this:

I can't model in Max, prefer NURBS progs like Rhino or Alias.

Can't beat it for rendering though. Just a pain to import the iges file as it sometimes throws wobblers like on the wheels above where it's filled in the spokes.

One thing I really need to learn is applying pictures to surfaces, like the clocks on a speedo for instance.

I've only been doing this for about three years really, just a case of fiddling with settings til you get it right.
