Hi MAG, welcome to the forum and to MoI! I'm glad you are liking it. That's a great result from the first day!

Thanks! Really like the software and are now slowly learning by making my second project, a Bladerunner inspired kind of revolver thingy :)

Drew a fast basic 2d-design in illustrator and are modelling up one half in MoI, dont know if its the best way of doing it but are kind of learning as I go along... next up is adding/finalizing details and then trying to figure out how to do some textures and rendering. Should I prepare the model by union all the seperate components that are supposed to get the same texture or can I export it all as one single object? Am thinking of trying out Adobe Substance, Dont know... looks quite promising... and not too complicated

When you export out to .obj format, the styles list will become the materials list and the style assignments in MoI will become material assignments.

So if you set all objects that you want to have the same texture in your render to have the same style in MoI that should get it all set up.

Big thanks for the help Michael, really appreciate it. Really fun working with Moi and super easy to use Styles.

Heres how my first test render turned out with the help of some Procreate -touch up on the iPad.

Have a nice evening.
