I've been really struggling to come up with some sort of personal project to do in my free time, I might give this a shot:

I did some sculpting last night but no pics. I'm going to at least finish the clock trees.

Does anyone know a way to replicate the lighting effect on the clock faces? they kind of have that turned-on-a-lathe look

Maybe use a record image as a bump map? http://saturn.vfx.com/mccann/visionfinal/doc/record_closeup_crop.jpg

Just a guess... ignore me if that seems stupid

I believe it would be done with an anisotropic lighting model, i think max has one that you can replace the standard phong or blinn with. It basically lets you define a non circle highlight.
