Hi, my name is Karl Stöcker, and I was born a long time ago, way too long, in Berchtesgaden, Germany, grew up in Düsseldorf, and since 1966 have been in the US (mostly). I've traveled a lot, 46 countries by this time, and I am planning on many more. I've spent a couple of decades in the US military, active and reserve, and since retirement from civil service, worked off and on as a high school science teacher in a suburb of Sacramento. Ever since my original ID's Doom days, back when it was just released on a floppy disk as a free level advertisement, I was interested in learning about 3D CGI, but I didn't get started until I retired from civil service in 1996. Since then I have been working with Truespace, Bryce, then Lightwave 3D, and Vue. Also dabbled a little in Poser 4, but just bought Poser 6 and am starting sink my teeth into that a bit. My website, http://www.cosmic-pearl.com/, has more details on me, should anyone not be bored to tears by now, also there are LW Viking ship and Star Wars X-Wing tutorials, as well as downloadable meshes (which can be imported into Vue, BTW) - my free stuff to the CG community.

Yes, trooper and bike were both modelled by me. See earlier posts on my gallery.

I changed the lighting to increase the backdrop brightness. I also brought in some volumetric effects on the upper right corner, which seems to go well with the light patches in the right-side backdrop. Lastly, I added some detail on the tree that was split, to keep the edge from being just a straight line.

Very superb modelling and nice compositing. It looks exactly like the real one! Excellent work! Greets Corven

As always Karl excellent modeling. I love the way you set up the scenes

Fantastic modeling. Perhaps a bit of motion blur on the forest to heighten that sense of speed. Well done!

Great render, can't believe I missed it! one thing i'd like to ask, where did you pick up the imperial scout model?
