Hey KrunchyWaffle.
I believe this would be more appropriate (and therefore get more responses) in http://pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=8 - the WIP forum . ------------- |

chrome as you can see in this picture http://geekologie.com/2007/03/chrome-wii.jpg has very strong highlights and is very reflective, so that is how you should shade it. Not exactly sure on how to exactly shade it, but thats what i usualy do, look at real objects to see how it works. edit: i gave a very quick attempt at how i thought it should look, not sure if its correct.  editedit: i found this picture that i think it pretty similar to what you made. http://www.letsgomobile.org/images/reviews/0048/sony-ericsson-w910.jpg and realized that the shading i applied if for a bulb and the real thing is more flat. ------------- http://dragcave.net/viewdragon/G3eW"> 
please click it, otherwise it will die, and it seems special. |
