Unfortunately, there's really noticeable tiling issues on the leather material - otherwise nice attempt.

Hi Despot,
thanks for having a look and for your comments, they are greatly appreciated. I used the texture that came with the model but, I will have a look for something better to replace it with and post the results in this thread.  If you get a moment maybe you can have another look and let me know what you think.

Hi again Despot,
I just had another look at the model in keyshot and noticed that the mapping was set at "BOX" I have now changed this to UV and that seems to be sorting out the tiling issue. I am just doing a quick render now to see how it looks.

made a couple of changes, but not sure if it has improved any.

Nice rendering.

Are you willing to share the .KSP file for further exploration?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Artur
Just let me get this one to a finished state first and I will be happy to share it. I am still new to keyshot...and very green  :)

I think some directional light would compliment it well.

Hi Will, many thanks for having a look and your suggestion, which I have now done.

Added two lights to the scene and changed the material of the legs.

Hey Artvps, great changes ! That light really helps, but i think the leather material is a bit too shiny perhaps ? I can be wrong though. Cheers !

Hi NM-92,
Thanks for having a look and for your comments and suggestions. I think you are correct on what you say, not sure if it is the material being too shiny, or the lighting being too hard...I will soften the lighting as a first step to see if that makes the difference before adjusting the material.

updated with one additional light (more overhead) and softened the other two lights.

Thank you very much Will, greatly appreciated.
Do you know if there is a part of the forum that deals with work in progress like what I have been doing here?
I would rather not hog this part of the forum like this with a WIP since this part of the forum seems to be more for finished works.
Thanks

Nah, don't sweat it! This kind of thing happens all the time and we don't have a WIP/Progression thread. Could be a great idea though. I'll float the idea around here and see what others think.

I've had great luck with Sorensen leather materials available to download from and use in KeyShot.  You might check those out on the KeyShot download page.
