Material and lighting:

I use Finalrender stage-1 as my renderer. All material use Finalrender advanced material. For the lighting, I use a Finalrender rectangle light, and set a HDRI in the sky light, also I copy the HDRI to the background.

Material for the ground

Material for the blue canvas

Material for the inner part of the shoe

Material and lighting:

Material 1, 2, 3, 4

I use Finalrender stage-1 to make material for this cell phone. I use fR-Metal for the black part of the phone. fR-Car paint for the silver part of it. fR-glass for the plastic buttons. fR-Cd material for the laser laber (the PHS).

Lighting

I set the skylight value to 0.9 and I use the a HDRI for the lighting and copy it to the environment.

This video tutors demo you how to model PET bottle,advaned NURBS modeling. Please note you need npower Power NURBS plugin to make this model.

npower website click HERE

Description of this tutor:
In this video tutor I combine NURBS fuction in 3ds max and use the npower power NURBS plugin to perform some task during modeling this PET bottle. I take advange of the "Xcurve" function in power NURBS to make the wave pattern of this bottle. For the bottom of this bottle, I use the powerbollean to cut out the shape and fillet the it.

It seems that npower power NURBS has bug, so I am stick with default NURBS in 3ds max, until some task can not be done by default NURBS.

Tips: the cut out the shape of wave pattern, better check the "cap" fuction after you revolve the cure for the middle part of the bottle.

[video][tutor]NURBS modeling a hook

*** Donate to CG Taiwaner ***
In this video tutor you will learn basic NURBS to model a hook.

Description of this tutor:
(1) create shapes and corss-section of the hook
(2) convert to NURBS, join the curves
(3) By using "create 2-rail sweep" to crete surface for the hook

Tips: play around with "reverse curve" and change posion of start point of the cross-section curves to get better result

[video][tutor]Modeling a turbine (impeller)

In this video tutor you will learn how to model a turbine in 3ds max, basic NURBS modeling.

Description: First create rectangles and circle, attach those shapes together. Trim the shapes. Convert to NURBS and lathe. Secondly, to create fans of the turbine, create curve, extrude the curve. Create another cureve and trim the extrude surface. Fix the capping problem by convert to mesh, go to vertex level, select all vertex and weld.
