3d: A technical look at the rendering powers of mental ray 3.8 in 3ds Max 2011
Mei 2010

I have recently contributed to an article for CG Society about 3ds Max 2011 and mental ray 3.8
Please have a good read and give me your critical observation.
Also, check my New Book: 3D Photorealistic Rendering: Interiors & Exteriors with V-Ray and 3ds Max
Finally, the image displayed in the article is based on the step by step tutorial series recently produced for 3D Total; I hope you also take a look at them.
The tutorials were tailored for Max 2010, using different techniques to achieve the same results.
The grey 3D Model was provided by the talented Viktor Fretyan.
