Alaska Iceberg WIP…
This is what i am working now …
Question… how can i make i nice textures for the icebergs? on this example i am using SSS but i think is more complicate, do i need to use more layers or can one single shader do the job ?
any sugestion thanks …
Nando
For the iceberg, I would suggest displacing the living heck out of it. Put very finely displaced creases all along it. Also, sharpen sone ofthe edges (modeling). Looks great!
Oh, this is starting to look really nice! When comes the textures?!
Keep it up, peace!

I am working on the Empire state building…havent seen anyone esle online this past days.
Now im back, I had a major PC crash of some kind, here is a smal update on the chopper. I know i told i would finish it about a week ago or something, bu life is hard =\
Edit : I have also started to work on a basic MEL script to control some of the atributes om the chopper, like the rotation speed, as it is now, i think i got a realsitick RPM rate, but i guess no one will see it anyway so… 
Hi H3r0 the chopper looks good… I wouldn’t worry too much about the RPM rate. some textures and it is done…
I saw Sepu video yesterday, I liked too…
ok this is WIP not very good but getting there… no textures or lighting yet only a shoot of the ice when breaking up…
I have major problems with maya yesterday, because the amount of polys… (the Icebergs)
how can i reduced the amount of polys Display on the screen, but render all the Polys?
Thanks Keep up the good work Locos
