What are the surface settings? It looks pretty spot on!

Re: Cylon Raider Prototype
Lightwave 10, i used the metal preset (Chrome) and tweaked the diffuse and spec and reflection to about 50% each..

Re: Cylon Raider Prototype
Grrrr! I just can't get the look right
And LW 7.5 has the same preset.

Re: Cylon Raider Prototype
A lot of the trick to having metal look right is having something for the metal to reflect.
A lot of people put presets on without giving the surfaces anything to reflect.
A limited set or background image is all you need.

Re: Cylon Raider Prototype
I have used that approach of things in the scene to reflect and/or a BG image.
