Modelling a metal grain container

Posted: April 30, 2010

Hallo guys,

I have a concern and I`m looking for some help.

I have to model a 3D metal grain container (in farms for storing corn and grain), but since I have no experience in working with 3D-Software, I`ve tried to build it using Photoshop`s 3D-Engine.

I still haven't managed to make it have this metal look and feel. The rippled emobssment is also an issue....

Can you give me some tips & tricks how could I achieve the metal appearance and the rippled texture? Or may be where to find a 3D-model, that I can import and edit in Photoshop ?


Any help would be greatly appreciated!
