Description My first 3D project.
Rendered entirely in blender (http:/www.blender.org), the open-source 3d modeller.

I've now re-rendered this model, with ray-mirroring instead of rampshading [link]

I like this version better, because of the brighter colors and the double shadow. Was this a school project, or did you do it on your own time?

Oh, I'm doing all of this in my spare time.

Thank you!

They do render much faster... but I think this model looks a lot better with ray-mirroring instead.

Well, they are very different effects. A bit of ramps and toon shading would be awesome, while ray-tracing is for the realism.

Do you have any tips for achieving that toon effect? Is it a setting somewhere for the blender internal engine?
...I'm just over a week into blender, so tips from the more experienced folks would be great.

Basic toon shading info: [link]

Of course, when you get better, you should play with node materials, for really awesome toon shading (better than normal materials can ever achieve! Link: [link] )

Great first go, and an excellent choice of subject.
