Render this: SSS
-
Dude you guys are sick. This is great stuff. I wish I had more time to play right now.
-
That looks yummy, TBG.
Move on, Pete? But SSS is like DOF; it's LOF = Lots Of Fun. Besides, I prefer to just lurk the water fountain thread for a while as everybody is giving away great ideas and I still can't come up with a practical one.
-
OK, I couldn't let it sit with my previous complaint about Kerkythea, so here's another attempt. Tried to get a cloudy emerald rock-crystal look to it. Might've done better with a reflection environment, but I forgot about it and have already let it run overnight.

I had to give it a try with this little guy.Twilight #9....let it render while I was at work yesterday for about 12 hrs.

Tried an experiment. Copied the dragon, pasted it in place, scaled one copy down by 10%, placed it inside the other dragon to give it a real subsurface, assigned the outer skin a transparent material, and the inner a green translucent material. Didn't turn out like I expected, but was fun.

The mint jello dragonHmm, if the IoR is the same it may have negated the effect. Perhaps applying a mild fresnel effect to the outer layer?

RichWoodtick, this looks very interesting. Could you share how you did it?

Playing again.

Ecuadorian,
Well, since I'm really new to this I'm just trying different ideas to see what happens. Nothing scientific to my approach, but I'll share as best I can.
Dragon sits in the bowl: high reflective template
Dome goes on top for the render:diamond glass
spotlights as shownSpherical sky, no sun, HDRI
Two small red omnis, nose& throat
skinny spotlight on tongue
tiny orange omni eyestarted with rubber ball material and tweaked :
SU fog on
TW preset #9That covers most of it I think.
Lots of great images here folks......keep 'em coming.

let it run overnightThanks Solo.

That is excellent. I've not been able to get that kind of result from Twilight. Will have to have another go at it. Do you mind showing your lighting setup?
Does the orange dragon have an eyepatch?
-
of course
It was an accident that my light bulb size(radius) was at 50.8
I also used a HDR lighting for the sky probe. Oli posted the link to said hdr images a little while ago.
Thanks Oli.and you did spot my eyepatch... haha
