Step 08 - Materials.

160) Central base cylinder: Material type: Standard Shader: Anisotropic Difuse color: Value 82 Specular Level: 78 Glossiness: 10 Anisotropy: 85	161) Chrome cylinder: Choose a new slot and apply a Bitmap Map at the Reflection Channel. In this tutorial I've used the HONGKONG.JPG (you can fine it at 3dsmax\maps\Backgrounds). Change the mapping type to Cylindrical Evironment and reduce the map influence to 60.

162) Metal parts: Material type: Standard Shader: Blinn Difuse color: Value 25 Specular Level: 157 Glossiness: 19	163) Screws: Material type: Standard Shader: Strauss Difuse color: Value 119 Glossiness: 82 Metalness: 21

164) Covers: Material type: Standard Shader: Blinn Difuse color: Value 69 Specular Level: 14 Glossiness: 0	165) Borders: Material type: Standard Shader: Blinn Difuse color: Value 30 Specular Level: 159 Glossiness: 41

166) Seat: Material type: Standard Shader: Blinn Difuse color: Apply a Falloff map to this channel and change the first color to R: 0; G: 74; B: 5; and the second R: 133; G: 190; B: 137; Specular Level: 159 Glossiness: 41 Little gif for reference:	167) Change de background of your scene to this color: R=82; G=104; B=131
168) If you render, you will have something like this:

Step 09 - Lighting.

169) We are going to make a very simple light setup with the Light tracer. First off all create a floor.

170) After this, create a Target Spot from Top Viewport.

171) Move it in the Z axis lifting it up.

172) For this light use this configurations: turn Shadows on with Area Shadows type. Use a Multiplier of 0,6. Raise the Hotspot/Beam to 85,0.

173) Next step is create a Omni in this position with a Multiplier of 0,3 casting NO shadows.

174) Create then a Skylight (anywhere) with a Multiplier of 0,45.

175) Open Light Tracer panel and change Rays/Sample to 200, Filter Size to 1 and Cone Angle to something near to 42.

176) When you render, you'll have something like this. Great :)
