This is a quick tutorial on how to make shiny Chrome in Maya 2011. Someone asked me on how to do it, so here it is. I recommend to use Photoshop and brighten the HRD Image, so you can have a brighter daylight result. Hope this help for you and those learning out there.

Dude Awesome Tutorial!! I’ve been searching up tons of tutorials on how to do a bunch of stuff which you just made easy to do in one tutorial
nice work bro, is the plane just so you’ll have a shadow and ground for your plane?
