Lightwave 3D rules!
To everyone reading bout the DS Prototype mock-ups I'd like to share that these renders were done entirely in LightWave 3D 9.3.1. Lightwave doesn't get enough recognition in the CG
DS Prototype skyrocketing
I sent the WIP images to Gizmodo and they offered to feature them on the site. After a few small alterations they went up and also hit the front page of Digg.com.

Firstly the videos are very highly compressed, so they don't look very good and the audio sounds distorted. The thing is, they compressed it so much , but not enough to fit on a CD.
