To create this design I made a torus knot which I changed to anistropic in the material editor and played with the specular level and anistopy until I got a chrome looking effect. I then added a bitmap image on the London skyline by night and made the original ambient colour black.
Im really pleased with the finished design and I think the black ambient colour works well with the night scene.

I created the different materials on this teapot but seperating the segments using Multi Sub-Objects tool. This could be an interesting tool when making an object with many different sections such as a wooden cart.
