Regarding Tor Frick's MODO render's

Stranger

Anyone know how he sets them up? There so beautiful, I dont want to directly link his art.

But if anyone knows how he sets up his settings please share!

I'd say it's less about his settings and more about his texturing/shading/lighting skills.

He's a highly skilled artist with a broad knowledge base. This is his secret...  

PolyHertz

iirc he uses one of default 3 point light setups that comes with Modo. Not sure about the materials.

In general they are pretty simple Most of the time I just use one of the HDRIs that ship with modo, sometimes with a rimlight directional light, but thats pretty much it for the renders, unless you are talking about the shaders.

The secret is Tor stopped sleeping years ago just to further his goal of making the rest of us look bad.
