Dark cave

With Volumetric Lighting, invisible boundaries and use of the Copy tool one can make interesting scenes.

Crystal Room

Simply lighting effects, the right textures and the right camera position can bring out a simple room very nicely.

Stained glass

Stained glass in the light of a sun can give cool patterns. A nice experiment.

Vases

By experimenting with certain settings, one can quickly transform a sphere into a flower.

Decorated wall

Decorations are common and surprisingly quick to make. Tehy really bring a good atmosphere.

Another Update

So it's been a while. Not much progress on the entire licence part, but there's a bit of good progress at least.

I've convinced the correspondent to check if they can lengthen my Student trial, whereas I buy the R17 or by then, R18 version next year. I sent in my details and have yet to hear back from him.

That's pretty much all there is to it. I'm still waiting, so still no tutorials so far. Meanwhile, here are some of the sites I used for tutorials.

There are many others though, these I just used most frequently. Reliable, mostly free and not that hard either.

Hopefully for the last time, sorry for any inconvenience and if you're edging to follow tutorials, try one of the mentioned sites. Of course, feel free to ask any questions.
