i thought i'd have a crack at making a 3d openarena logo in blender. i think it turned out ok.  what do you think? EDIT - better logo further down.

ok, i'm reasonably happy with the shape now so i've moved on to the lighting and materials stage. i went for a metallic look with two white lights above on either side and a yellow light below.  it took a little while to render because it's got 6 levels of subsurf, x16 oversampling, mirror raytracing and it's 1400x1200 pixels. turned out ok though.

i'm not sure about my modeling. i think the "A" part of the logo could be a bit beefier. anyone agree?

If you have a quick look in this thread you can see example of how it looked like from the start. The lightning is nice, but it could be a little bit brighter, or slightly move the highlights to give it a realistic metal surface. It looks really nice in the thumbnail view, but enlarged view is a bit orange in my opinion.

thanks for the link w1zrd, there were a couple of nice images there. i've got a better idea of what it should look like now. i agree on the lighting, it is a bit dull.

iOpenArena...
That sounds like something Apple would use so let them deal with that...

i've reworked this and i hope it's looking better.  i removed the ring and remade it from scratch. instead of the weird flat, oversized one i now have a rounded one that is closer in thickness to the A. the material i had been using was way too reflective which was why it needed so many lights. i've used a gold material that has less reflectivity and can be lit with a single light. i'm not sure about where the ring joins the A, it flares out quite a bit. i might try it with a tighter radius.

right, i've tightened the upper radius where the ring meets the A so that it matches the lower one.
