Thanks Karim. Regarding the POV-Ray... tried it... didn't like it. Anyway
what's wrong with regular pics? I think they are fine. Anyway, regular pics =
show model, POV-Ray = show model, make things "shiny". I mean, does better
picture quality improve a model? ... absolutely not, the model either is cool
or just plain sucks! I hope you and others judge my models by their design and
shape, not by how shiny I can get <insert area of model> to look!

If it is a question of perspective, I can always put different angles of my
models, or even better the viewer can download the file (which is what I do 80%
of the time when I look at other's models).

But still, how many perpectives do you need?

Anyways, most peoples website are made up mostly of regular pics, Jeremy, You
(Karim), and many others, except of course Ben who uses POV-Ray and a few
others.

Mladen Pejic, over and out!

Mladen, this one is way cool.  I love the cockpit!  And the head.  And the
limbs.  And, and...oh heck, it's a cool model.  :-,  Looking back at your
older stuff, I can say that you are definitely picking up more and more
skills.

I must second this.  VERY nice.  I've been pretty quiet recently, but I want • to
say that all of the recently posted models have been very good.  Kudos to all
of you guys.

Mladen, I highly reccommend that you next look into doing POVray renderings of
your models... The LDlite pics are nice, but I think that the lack of
perspective is hurting the visual impact of some of them... (in other words, I
think your designs are even cooler than they look! :) )


BTW, for anyone that is interested, the Pallas Spaceworks rebuild is nearly
complete. I expect to launch the new site in the next couple of weeks. The • only
items left to be done are assembling the DAT files for download and a few • minor
thumbnail images.  The new site will sport a brand new professional look &
interface, and contains 10 (count 'em: TEN) new models.

TTFN!

(...) Well, as a professional Industrial Designer, I must point out that while technically, you are right that a better rendering doesn not improve a model, what we are concerned with is not the model, but people's perception of the model.
