Description
By request, here is a fully chrome version of the APC 15 droid. For this look, I took my bot shell and re-textured it with a mirror shader. Instructions for achieving this look are included below.

Software
Scene Composition: Daz Studio 4.9.3.166
Rendering: Iray in Daz Studio 4.9.3.166
Postwork: Photoshop CS4 (Texture Work, Raxatech Logo, Resize)
All 3D assets licensed through Daz Productions, Inc. unless otherwise noted.

Shader
Iray Mirror Shader by aaron575 (Freebie)

Geoshell Instructions
1) Select the figure.
2) Create a geoshell (Create->New Geometry Shell) and parent to selected item.
3) Select the geoshell.
4) Open the surfaces pane and select all the surfaces of the geoshell.
5) Apply the Daz Iray Silver Shader (Library->Shader Presets->Iray->Daz Uber->Metal - Silver). (Or the Mirror Shader above.)
6) Select the Cornea, Eyelashes, EyeMoisture, EyeSocket, Irises, Pupils, Sclera, Teeth surfaces and set Cutout Opacity=0. (Or turn those nodes Off under Parameters->Geometry Shell 1->Shell->Visibility.)
7) Use Photoshop or gimp to create opacity image maps for exposing the figure underneath. The amount of Grey determines the level of Transparency. (White=Opaque, Black=Invisible, 50%Grey=50%Transparent) In the case of Synx, I was able to use the Diffuse maps as Opacity Maps.
