"Mailbox" completed April 2008 Modelled in Maya 8. Rendered with Brazil.
	I started this by going out and photographing old rusty mailboxes. These photos served as reference for both the mailbox model and for what the surface of the mailbox would look like. I used photographs of galvanized metal and rust as a basis for the textures. The maps were created in Photoshop. Special thanks to my husband, Neil, who helped with the rendering in Brazil.
