is it possible to get an image of the final result?

the rumors surrounding my dissappearance
have been greatly over exaggerated

so after a month off, i have returned and i have some updates for my mesh
i've gotten a new video card, the 8600 gt with the zakman heat sink that has allowed me to become more effiecient with my work

last week i worked on ...

wow i feel honored that my work is
inspiring debates.

i actually don't like the amount of shadows that are being created,
and i'm going to be looking into fixing that
currently everything is bing lit by area lamps
and what i'm calling a shadow lamp
where there are six sun lamps lighting every thing ...

well actually after Christmas i plan on making some upgrades to my pc
such as a video card
and afterwards i plan on trying a radiosity shot.

wow about time someone speaks up
lol

these shots are actually now old

heres some new
with an ent-b color scheme

that i need to tone down a lil bit

so just to let you all know, i have not died, i am still working on this project, but i'm taking a break to double check somethings and i have discovered that my shield effect only works when the camera is on the same side as the shield impact, SO, i will try something else and get back to you guys ...

thanks sherlock,
since i am still in college, it's probably gonna be a while for me to get my own site.

i am actually gonna make a short video with a demonstration of all of my effects.
but thats gonna take a while.

ah ok
i see what you mean.
i'll try playing with a spot lamp with a halo, but since halos don't work well with ray traced transparencies it might not look that great.

i'm afraid that i don't know what you mean by volume lighting and volumetric.
i was thinking of ashing a spotlight to the effect, but that would only affect the lighting.

ok so this is what i've got for the tractor, tell me what you think and what needs to be tweaked cause i think it needs something more to it.

hey all,

just to give you a heads up
i'm working on the tractor beam today
and i hope to have the results up later tonight
or even tomorrow.

thanks for the responses
i'll get a tutorial up soon.

so i don't have an animation yet
cause i have a crappy video card
but this is a still image
the ambassador can be found on this site by Cyrille Lefevre

eventually...sure
but i want to try an make some tutorials on how to make them as well.
i'm planning on releasing all of my effects once i am done with all of them
kinda an all in one deal.
