or what am I forgetting?
I have this render but I cannot figure out how to get a shadow under the knife...Please shield your eyes for the ugly looking knife (everyone has got to start somewhere)

(the knife is stuck in the ground, I also need some tips to improve that effect, because now it just looks like I cut the end of the blade and put it on the ground)

I am rendering with Mental Ray, So I tought that it would make a shadow by itself. I also tryed to add an ambient light but that wont work either.

I would really appreciate some help grin.gif

Its about bedtime for me (23:55) so I will check this thread as soon as I get back from work tomorrow.

edit: I forgot to tell that i am using Maya 7.0
