Wonderful! ^_^ I have lots of mobile phones I've done, I never had time to upload all of them. 
This is a really good render. Did you use MLT? Thats always the best render method for me. It takes forever but it does very good.

Thx
MLT it is! very few passes at this stage, something like 20 passes, the graininess somehow suits the steampunk style though.
anyway, early days with this piece, not finished the modelling yet!!

Ah I see. Out of curiosity, do you have a career in doing 3d modeling?

I'm a recently self employed building designer at the mo, trying to push the visualisation side of design at the moment hence flooding DA with models. No one has chosen to offer me paid work in this area yet, I have been 3d modeling for about 15 years though as a hobby. I'm hoping that shear bloodymindedness will yield some orders soon

Do you think it would be a good idea to choose this as a career path then?

the only career advice i would ever give anyone is do what you love and keep doing it until you're really good at it and then maybe just maybe someone will pay you to do what you love.

I would agree progressive renders I thick look more real if given the right about of time

Its interseting how it works though, on some renders the noise clears up quite quickly, yet on others it can render forever and still have noise... not sure what that is about

something like 60 passes of mlt. i love the way mlt renders... very natural, sometimes very early renders can look very cool on mlt
