X-ray??

[Mav88]

Hey there, im doing a project at college that requires x-ray looking images. I need it to be as realistic as possible. I will create the models such as a hoover, toaster etc. But then im stuck on how to create a realistic look. Preferably blue image on a black background.

Im using 3ds max. I have access to paintshop pro 7 and photoshop.

All help will be greatly appriciated.

Ta very much

I would put a slight blur on it in Photoshop tust to make it look more like an X-Ray. Not a big blur, maybe just one or two pixels or something.

This was a Radial Blur, Settings: Zoom, Best, 3.
