Arwing preliminary renders

Description

So I've given in and am working with the Evaluation version of Rhinoceros 4.0.
It turns out that they've worked on the rendering functions quite a lot since 2.0, improving "crappy" into "skimpy".

But the rectangular light source makes for quite a realistic shading ... at least in comparison to the spotlight light source, the ONLY kind that was available in 1.0, I believe. I think the added a point and linear light source in 2.0 but that was kind of a "meh".
I know there's a separate rendering utility, but that costs more money to buy, so I'm (hopefully) dumping this in Shade once I'm done modeling. Shade can't model worth crap (imho) but at least it can render pretty.

I really need to purchase this program, but a certain person needs to call back first. I hope I don't run out of saves.



The Arwing from Starfox, I've taken liberties from the original design, but this is still the Arwing from Starfox 64 ... in spirit, at least.

The model is still lacking in details and I haven't made anything for the engine assembly in the back, which is why I'm showing only the front and sides with cool shading to mask the lack of details.
I wonder if I should ditch the little cylindrical things on the ridge of blue pods.

Next up is the engine exhaust in the back, maybe actual details in the cockpit, and general addition of other little details like chamfering the edges and adding little greeblies and whatnot to make it "realistic".


Again, I'll get around to replying to comments ... eventually.
