Couple days ago I started polymodeling mars rover and today I decided to give it a first test ride in octane:) This is just quick and dirty test and there is more work to be done on robot and environment also...

Looks promising,
YOu need to work on the smoothing but I'm sure you know that.

Tnx guys for comments. I'm finishing up with modeling so I should post some updates in a few days. I'm also in a search for Mars HDRI and would appreciate if someone could tell me where to find one:)

@pedrojafet

I don't remember seeing it, but I would like to watch it:) Can you please post link:)

@mib2berlin

I doubt he was speaking about that project. Movie from your link is released few days ago and it's done in Houdini :)

VERY nice, loving those tracks :) With those solar panels textured it will look awesome.

How many polygons?

Tnx:) It's just below 1.7 mil triangles but there's plenty of room for optimization of geometry...

EDIT

P.S.

I intend to model solar cells:)
