Hi Pilou, nice to talk to you!

That render is not the newest or best render I have done with that particular model, it was done using Vue d'Esprit 4. The unfortunate grain on the model was due to the textures being so reflective combined with my poor choice of a grainy ground texture in that image.

It is because of your posts that I found Kerikithea <sp?> a while back though, and I just purchased TruSpace 6.6 last week, so my renders here from now on (...in JPG Format!) will be improving no doubt.

I wonder, Pilou, if you realize how very important for new MoI users like myself your MANY posts have been here at this forum? You have helped me countless times here without knowing it. Through your enthusiasm, dedication, and inquisitive nature here, I and many others lurking here have gained a much better appreciation for MoI. Thank you.
