Description Rendering the Blitz Panther in Maya with mental ray. I know it's a bit shiny, I expect I'll tone it down a bit! Just completed the rigging of the Panther, I'm going to get back to practicing animation with this sucker. This is the MkIIb - there are a few extra details such as the little scope-thingies on the shoulders.

Reminds me of the Cannon Panther... It's nice to see this zoid in different poses like this and I like the metallic shine. It's a little distracting but it makes the piece appear more detailed than it is.

Ah, awesome! It rendered so well. Your models make me want to model a zoid too. Yours come out so good, I love the shininess and the color.

The shininess is actually really easy to do in Maya, so long as you've got some interesting, smooth surfaces to apply it to.

Yea, I usually see how certain parts of some of my models would look shiny but I haven't been doing it too much lately.

OOH SHINY! I don' think it's a bad thing at all, it makes it look much more metallic.
And considering its made of metal, that's excellent.

If onl Zoids were real...

so cool, i would kill to do stuff like that.

So how much is Maya? I've heard of it but I never figured out the price.

I don't know exactly - it's pretty expensive! I'm using the latest demo version, so my time is quickly running out with it!
