I don't know much about rendering, but i say the lightning looks good.
But the cliffs in the background looks wrong, a fix would be nice.

do any of you know how to instance an object in a mr area light with mental ray render? I know its possible (according to the mental ray manual) but it doesnt tell you how to make it.

Right to the middle(that cut-off texture)looks strange in my opinion.

Looking good, still seems that there is a bit to much reflection on the ground. Maybe when you get the time you should use HDRI.

To the left of the light-strip.

ya that struck me as odd too, probably will just change it to the same texture on the other side of the light strip

Ok, I am a complete noob at rendering. I was hoping maybe someone can anwser a few of my questions.
1. In the following picture, the spartan has like a funky line on the left side of his helmet right under his visor. How can I fix this?

2. How can I get his helmet to be a new color? I've herd that I need to edit one of the maps, but Im confused and don't know which one or how I need to do it.
3. What else do I need to make it look better?

EDIT: Also, with 3ds Max, can I edit UVs?
