انا فاكر انى كنت بجيب تقريبا ماتريال اسمها سيرفس من منتال راى و كنت بعمل لاير رندر و بحدد الدرجة قوة الشادو و اللون

بس ازاى بصراحة مش فاكر

ok
here is an explanation which might help you out

just make the light bounce for one time after it hits the surface
i can't recall what is the name of this in mental ray but what i mean is you make the light having one bounce only not 2 or 3
that will give you the " ambient occlusion" pass
and this will make you scene look like this

lighting in maya is a big deal!
any way use no light and apply one material (gray color) to all,and turn the default light off, then render in production mode and turn the final gather on. if you want shadow...create a point or a spot light near your model and rotate it to your model,turn shadow on and if u increase the shadow radius and shadow rays to 1.5 for the radius and 12 for the rays it will be better.try but u know lighting needs experience and good understanding , 3d lighting not like the real world....
