In this tutorial you'll learn how to create a sunset desert environment to place your models in. We take a look at some lighting techniques using radiosity and light bounces and work on getting great looking reflections from the environment to occur on the surface of our model. The McLaren car used in this video was created in another tutorial and can be found in the main training section on the site.
We also create some interesting ground textures with cracks fading of into the distance using different gradients and working in Lightwave’s texture and surface editors with color, bump and specular maps. The textures we use can be downloaded here.
