This took about 4 hours to do. It's based on the work of Roman Kochnev.

Uhm, you mean 4 hours of designing, modelling and rendering, or just the
modelling?

Designing, Modeling, Texturing, Test Rendering, Rendering. This took about
3 minutes to render. I designed it for speed. Pun intended. :)

What procedure do you follow to knock these out so quickly? Also, am I
correct that you hand-code everything or do use a modeler?

BTW what's your site's URL?

I have said it before and I will say it again, Glows will do more to

Let me sum it up:
4 hours for:
- modelling of wings, body, etc. (spatch ?)
- drawing of the texture maps
- modelling additional stuff (guns, etc.)
- put everything together
- adding some glows
- Building up a nice lighting and camera position
You must either be cheating or using some advanced AI reading your
thoughts and ...
Nice pict. BTW.

It looks more like lens-flares, which are lens-effects :-)

I don't see why, they don't do anything that can't be done with media or
tricks with highlights on transparent objects...they are just a bit
faster.

They are a -lot- faster, easier to manipulate and get the parameters
right, and usually have a nicer effect with hours less trouble. Therefore
people will use them. I wouldn't feel bad putting a thousand in a scene if
it needed it. If I had to mess with media for that I would find another way
to do the scene.

Thanks for the link...I don't have near enough time to cruise around looking
for these type of sites.
As far as the model...looks superb, yet it's a shame you hide a large amount
of detail with low lighting.

That could be a problem, especially when doing computer graphics...

Do you plan these things in your sleep? Or do you just have a patch lead
hooked up to every member of the family so that you can use their
resources?

Actually, it *is* an atmospheric effect, similar to the halo you see
around lights in fog. Otherwise, they wouldn't reflect or be visible
behind transparent objects. :-)
I am thinking of a lens flare effect though...it would mostly be like a
glow, but with slightly different behavior and more flare-like features.
Or maybe I'll just do a lens flare post_process filter...that might
allow much more realistic flares.

It is true actually that almost all people have a slight astigmatism which
makes lights have a slight flare effect. This is why we do not always see
stars as perfect dots of light, and also why some people shouldn't have
laser eye surgery (which can greatly exaggerate the effect).

I was not claiming otherwise, but that is not the effect that the glow
patch simulates, though it looks so similar it can be used for that
effect.
