Hi there,

my next project will be a Compur plate camera from 1925.

Here are some wires and a test render. Nothing special so far :D

Thank you all :D

Josephus, I use LightWave 9.6. Trying to model everything in Sub-Patch Mode on this model. :)

Looking great! I think the lens needs to be subdivided more. Curved surfaces with reflection and refraction need high resolution meshes when viewed up close.

I've got a big appreciation for such detailed modeling and this is looking spot on. This'll be a good one to watch! Keep it up.
