post-apoc junkers glasses

just like the chesboard, the cube and perhaps a checkerd plane.
there is a time in a beginning 3d modelers life when he has to make a pair of poast-apocaliptic glassses.

so there.

just started them out, and having a bit of difficulty with the shape of it all, and how to attach leather bands.
and still ahve to properly model the leather strips better.

and i want to uv texture the metal frame later on.

but for what it’s worth, here’s the first wip.

and just for kicks i’m trying to make use of the radiosity feature, although it could probebly look a lot beter.

C&C hints&tips wanted :slight_smile:

Colorful :smiley:

Seriously, little red stripes, rust and chipped paint would make it alot more pleasing to the eye. I just see alot of grey.

I would try using the ‘ref’ button which in 2.28c is on the far right in materials on the lenses or in some way give them a bit of glare.
<edit> also the nature of the material at the nose bridge area should be better defined.
