ok, this is wierd, now when ever i send somthin to layout, which is big, it just seems to shrik, i tryied importing my water i did from the tut on this site, the 1st time i did it, the 1km X 1km box was huge on screen stretching ito the horizon, now its like smaller than the we green camera, what have i done ?

Layout will do that. If you haven't already set a keyframe for the camera at frame zero, then layout will try to set the scene so that everything will fit in the camera view. You can rescale it by adjusting the grid size.

ok, here is a render, i was strugling with hdri, so i used a preset scene, and put my bike in that, and mucked about a bit, what u guys think? i want to submit this 2 a gallery, so anything to make it better would be great :P

cheers

render
 

Oh, that looks very nice. Only thing that I think would make it better would be to rotate the bike about 30 degrees so that the light isn't so straight on, that way you can see all of the wonderful details better (and show off that sweet chrome and paint ;) )

do u mean rotate the big pic of the bike, more to the right, ;)

yes
 

yes

here ya go :p

:bandit:
