Exactly, but I guess what ever naming conventions that work for the artist

Just for kicks and to show some progress

and here is a good render but I don't have the breaks, start box, or shifter on this one. but it looks great. I'm not far from completion, I probably should ruin the wires for everything but I think I'm going to skip that, even if this is going to be a portfolio piece

no I just use the built in lighttracer inside MAX.
I should use a better rendering program though. eh I'll get around to it.]
Btw the bike is pretty much done

I stripped it off to get some monotone and wire-frame renders I'll put it back on later for some full on 300 dpi renders

yeah I just wanted it ready to show off to any teachers at the school if they ask. :P

yeah but it takes forever to render with my settings turned up so high.

Btw in class I was bored so I modeled another light saber, I tried to copt the designe of a fellow student, I liked his a lot, but his came out a lot better, I'll post a link to his Here his is on this page, and here is mine their similar but different mines off a little, also his is done in Maya and mine is in max

here is a much better render of my saber. I feel I did a pretty good job with out reference, all I had to look at was that one image. I wish I could get a hold of the other student. I would like to compare the two and show him my tribute to him.
Actually that site has a lot of really good 3d artist, some of them I know personally, some I don't but I wish I could be good as half of them.

LIGHTSABERS WOO WOOO

lol I should put some mats on it, but I'm not sure what colors I should go, eh I'll figure it out later

This is what you want.

the parts of my cycle are modeled individually but then attached to one another.

Thanks for the link Jonny, I might go basic colors or I might do some custom ones.

No problem man, I'm a huge Star Wars fan, and your lightsabers deserve the best.

why what can I say I grew up on star wars. I'm surprised my dads old VHS taps didn't burn up with how much I watched them.

well they be come.... Attached together. I really don't know how to to say it simply.
but when you attach things, they become as one, that you can move together and modify together.
