Glad to hear u have interest in 3d. For realistic rendering, just read more on how lights behave, on what material and situation. Theres a lot of material over the net.
Then compare ur work with thore realistic photos and try to achieve as close as u can.

Im just sharing my way of working, still learning everyday.

have fun

kidding right? import 3ds in phoshop? is it a plugin.. i wanna know more. this sounds too good to be true

ermm... ya photoshop cs3 extended comes with this function... 3D objects can now be imported as smart objects, you could edit them as well, it renders almost real-time, and you can rasterize them to pixels too...

check this out ^^

Probably using the same thing from view3d program to view 3ds. But i dont know to what extent you can manipulate 3d in CS3...Looks like it has 3d coordinates aswell...I wonder where will PS stop when incorporating 3d. Probably it'll be an alternative to 3d painting program like bodypaint perhaps.

HOLY CRAP

this makes skinning and texturing easier.......

Yeah....ive alwasy wish tat troublesome bodypaint is abit easier...so used to PS workflow....will wait fer CS4!!

was helping out a friend doing a stage design for her architech course. low poly with crap textures. its in low poly cuz i need to render this to an a2 size paper with 300 DPI. just normal raytracer renderer and 3 spots.

its supposed to be a reality TV show stage...

KEwl stage....one thing abt some of us is that we are too technical until we forget about the aesthetics. This one has minimal technique, but it works! Great!
