... i'm wondering if there's something i may have forgotten to add...?

Since so many people seem interested in this kind of stuff... here's a full-on sample of the subject matter for this new section. It's to do with... well... read the caption...

Realistic 3D looking stuff (like a 3D app would create) like pipes, bars, caps, grooves, slits, cavities, cut-outs, buttons, sliders, knobs, nuts, bolts, screws, nails, wire casing, wires, glass, plastic, metal plating/covers, metal grating/grill, various textures... and a few other things.

I've finished all the tutes for everything in the left image, and i'm now a little into doing the pipes in the right side image.

Can anyone think of something i may have overlooked?

Ok cool thanks guys. If any does think of something else, post it here please.

One thing i just thought of, (and i don't know why!) is a metal gurder... like the kind used for a sky-scaper. That could be useful... i'll add that to the bunch.

How about little toggle switches (the ones that you flip up and down like on aircraft cockpits) or maybe little inset monitor screens and such. (not LCD, LCD readouts have been done to death.

Blinky2004

Ya, toggle switches, good idea.

By monitor ya mean as in a tv or comp monitor screen?... or?... like an airport screen with blips and wireframe graphics and stuff on it?...

Man, the list goes on [stuned] Your ganna be working on this one for quite a long time mark!

hahaha ya maybe Alistair... but hey... that's why i created the site in the first place so... no biggy.

And besides... i'll also be just naming a lot of stuff too, that can be created using the same techniques that are used for certain other effects. So it won't be too involved. [excited]
