Dug out my old motorcycle I did last year and decided to rework it a bit. This piece was created using 2 renders 1 b/w and 1 color render and then some tweaking in photoshop. I am currently In the process of updating my portfolio so any comments or critiques would be welcomed.

What it does puts the focus on the engine. A good way of isolating the surrounding. |

Looks great Daybe. I encourage my students to do this sort of thing. When they spend ages getting a good render they are loathe to mess about with it which is a shame. This sort of effect really appeals to me-looks like an illustration anf focuses on the area of interest; a technique often used in concept design...:D |

It has a visual appeal which transcends the usual "photorealistic" feel of normal 3D renderings. This is where you cross the line separating the artist from the technician. I like it. Very nice, Dave. |

Sorry Stoker, I meant I encourage the 'talented' students to do this. That might explain why we have not had that conversation yet..;) ;) :D |

I saw this earlier when I was visiting CGtalk.
Awesome work! Can't find anything to complain about that illustration. And that is weird, I usually complain about everything! :D |

Thanks folks,
Loadus: I saw this earlier when I was visiting CGtalk.
Ya posted it the other day, seems to be fairly well received over there, first time I ever was awarded any stars for an image there:cool:
I love motorcycles as well W!zard, I don't know if you noticed but there seems to be quite a lot of shows on tv nowadays almost everyday of the week devoted to building or riding, Sweet! Can't get enough.
I agree hemulin nice tongue. :p LOL!
Vizu, I have seen your work and this means a lot coming from you. Thx.
Cheers,
Dave |

TV? I rarely watch TV. I have a computer and I have tS. With these I can create my own fantasy worlds (free of annoying adverts) and so I watch very little television. (Ok I am a big fan of 'Lost' and I enjoy 'House' too (I'm a Hugh Laurie fan since the days of Blackadder)).
I have noticed a lot more interest in MX and super MX motorcycling but most of my riding was either dirt bikes along the fire breaks or weekend road trips involving major self-induced memory loss!!
Easily the best TV I've seen recently about bikes was 'Long Way Round' - a documentary about Ewan Mcgregor (Obi-wan-kenobi) and his friend and their adventures as they rode from London England to New York, New York via Mongolia, Siberia and Alaska. I have the series on DVD - highly recommended |

I hear ya W!zard, Apart from some stuff the TV in my house is turned off. I am a huge fan of Black Adder myself, have the box set and watch it regularly. I have seen the "Long Way Round" and it was great, I will have to keep an eye out for the DVDs.
Cheers, |

Congratulations, Dave. All that creative work, vindicated at last! Hopefully, this will provide you with the incentive to produce more powerful imagery like this one.
All the best for the future.
