is it something to do with the renderer or material? They look kinda real/grainy.Bit of a noob when it comes to 3d apps

It's ray traced. From the looks of it, they Used Brazil in 3DS Max, but I could be mistaken.

Hmm brazil in 3dsm eh.

Brazil = the drool
I used the beta a few years ago, but can't afford it at the moment.

Its that grainy look Im looking for. Deffo brazil? Don't want to spend more money.

well, one way to do it would be to use a slight monochromatic noise filter. You would probably get better results if you scaled your image up by like 1/3, ran the noise filter, then resize it back to it's original size.
