I rendered a B747 model. The nose, wings and tail are made with triangle
meshes. My next aim is to develop a animation of a 747 taking off. I am
working on that. Any suggestion for improvement is deeply appreciated.

thanks
sup

Looks excellent, I would try some higher res texture maps and some global
illumination style lighting

I agree with Rick. Very Nice. How much is a Business Class ticket? hehe

Stefan: You wont enjoy the business class flight much...because I haven't
rendered the interior yet -:) Regarding Rick's suggestion, I was wondering
how I can achieve the ambient lighting. I tried using the ambient
keyword...but it didn't have any effect on the aircraft object, although it
affected the ground plane. Is it some sort of a bug that ambient doesn't
work with complex CSGs. Sould be interesting to know.

thanks
Sup

I think Rick was referring to using radiosity.
Come back to me when you put som nice seat in that plane
and I will be happy to fly with you.. :)

Not nearly as nice as your model since I just nicked it from 3dcafe.. ;)

But is shows radiosity.

I think this model would look stunning with HDRI lighting in mael's mlpov.

Nice job, sup.  The model looks fantastic.  The only point I can make on the
model is that I don't see a rudder.  Did the anti-aliasing take it out?  For
my aircraft I simply split the surface and left a gap to create the control
surfaces.

Like the others have mentioned, radiosity is a must.  Have you considered
some HDRI maps?  They do wonders for realistic lighting and reflections.
Try giving your model some variable reflection to further up the realism as
well.

Hi Skip!

Thanks for the suggestions. Till now, I was too concerned with the geometry
of the model. But now, I will start thinking about the lighting. I just now
read an article about radiosity. I simply didn't know this before. I will
post again after adding radiosity. BTW, what are HDRI maps?

thank you
Sup

HDRI stands for High Dynamic Range Imaging.  Its basically an image format
that doesn't have a limit to the brightness levels of the colors.  Mael
wrote a patched a version of POV 3.5 that reads such a format for use in
scenes.  Download his patch here:
http://pov.monde.free.fr/mael/mlpov083.html
English older version instructions:
http://martial.rameaux.free.fr/mael/mlpov081eng.html

Run some of the sample scenes to see what it can do and for the syntax.
There were several posts on this board a few months ago that demo what HDRI
can do.  Here's an aircraft I rendered using an HDRI map:
