I pixeled my cell phone. I have kinda hit a stopping point, not sure if I should add a light source and shade from there or not.

SCH-A850 from samsung


My reference is my phone, but a reference pic is here:

yes.. YES...

light sources help to create a sense of verisimilitude (ba ha ha been waiting to use that word) without a light source objects dont look very good... heres an example of an object with no lightsource..

not very interesting is it....


oh and while i was at it i pixeld an invisible man...


but more seriously... pick a lightsource... sort out an interesting pallete and get the basic shadeing down before doing any AA or whatever technique you want....

keep on pixeling

I like shiny things, i do indeed.

It looks good!

Is the chassis brushed aluminum? Maybe you could do some effect do give it that brushed feel.

I'm actually not sure, I think it's plastic :P The one thing I don't like is the lighting effect on the inside, I think it looks too much like a gradient. I'm not sure how I could fix that, though.
