I have to agree with Valarking here…when I first started with Blender I read every tutorial that I could get my hands on (still do). To be able to comprehend the interface, armature system (I noticed the motion blur…) modeling tools, lighting and rendering tools of Blender in two weeks…well frankly thats pushing the limits of believeability. You have had experience with 3D modeling before, no?
Anyways, I really like your ‘first image’ ;). Nice texturing and modeling and lighting! Are the bricks on the side of the concession stand really bump maps or just nor maps?
I don’t doubt he could do it after 2 weeks. Some people are driven. I just insist that’s not his first image. Maybe his first image posted here. I think that’s what he meant.
