Hey thought I'd share with you Moray-users.  I finally got my first
BattleMech model to the point where I have been happy with it.  Moray is
the first modeler I have used and I can work with much less guess-work than
when I used just POVRay.

I have a bunch of renders but that's my first post on my site.

.....I have an idea of the scene I want to put it in, but now I have to
figure out shimmering heat waves, fog, grass, and a big spooky tree.

depends on the type of fog you want but you can make it either with ordinary
fog or with scattering media
for grass and trees  plugins by Keith Hull are downloadable here

Beautifull work!!!

using shadow to show the object makes it more realistic. Good idea

Excellent work.
Just out of curiosity: Have you made it moveable? Has it Inverse Kinematic
capabilities? I think it should have...

No, I looked in to IK at first but right now I'm just interested in static
images.  Also from what I have seen in gameplay the motion of
chicken-walker mechs is no easy feat, so I bailed out on the IK for the
moment.  Someday I would like to implement IK and then make a brief
animation.
