I have 20 years of experience with AutoCAD (to V.2009) and am only now beginning to learn to use the 3D functionality. I have created a rudimentary assembly detail and would very much appreciate any direction on how to 'polish' it to a more convincing finish. It is not necessary to produce photo-realistic images. I'd like to add some colour and some basic hatch/textures to represent individual materials. I have a jpg of the detail which I could send to anyone who can bear to look upon it's horrendousness.

Some functionality is limited for the "Newbie" level. Please use any image hosting service and post a link.

I've tried with a couple of image hosting services (free) and was getting quite a pixelated result. Can you suggest a service ? Or perhaps I could email it to you ? |

e.g. http://imageshack.us/" rel="nofollow - http://imageshack.us/ - it is quite popular for such functionality
