Hey majiku! I really like your model, very cool concept!

Darn, I was going to enter in a Dalek I was modeling, ah well. Maybe next competition.

I hate to be cheeky, but you wouldn't mind doing a quick writeup of how you set the scene up for rendering, and what settings you use? I'm absolutely rubbish at rendering, I don't even know how to get shadows

I usually use GI in Final Render (with nearly default settings) + one Direct Light above for the shadows and specular effect. All 4 small pics are simple viewport screenshots with default lighting. It's my default lighting scene for non-textured models=)
But the most simple way is to place skylight with shadows turned on (I prefer this rather than light tracer, despite longer render time). I did it in my previous entry in SMC#42.

And one more little thing: I use geometrical background (mesh) with "curved" corner, like in classical studio photograph.
