          Karina nice little scene you got there. I like the distortion; it looks like a nightmare! πŸ‘

            I'm re-posting the link to the CGI site that is in Pete's first post. It's really worth seeing what people are doing over there, some great treatments. This is a very challenging challenge.

              I like this one.. All Mad scientists movies were in Black & White right?

              If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                I didn't want to do any post work but I think the original black and white films had a much greater degree of contrast than this image so maybe I should have brought it into Photoshop to do that. Tonight I'll call up The Cabinet of Dr Caligari and see what it looks like.

                      Excellent renders, especially pete's.
                      I just did this in five min, just a clay render to understand what I have to do.

                        Gave the mouse a nuclear touch.
                        I promised myself I wouldn't get too much into rendering as most of my work is CAD related, but once you start it's hard to stop.
                        I really need a new computer. The computer I have shuts down when I try to render something in Octane (it should have a splash screen that says: Who Do You Think You're Kidding?!). This simple scene took a couple of hours in modo.

                          Threw in a few extras, to make it 'LOONEY SCIENCE'.

                          I really like the Tesla orb, I think I nailed it.

                              is it just modeled emitters? with a graduated colour? fantastic

                                  The last render pete is almost perfect, some sss on the mouse and straight to galleries like 3dtotal. And some dirt, always πŸ˜„

                                    That last rendering is pretty great. My only comment is that the desktop is so clean -- it hardly fits with a mad scientist. I would throw in some dust/cobwebs, scorch/burn marks, and/or cracks in the tiles. Make it look like he his done crazy (gone wrong) experiments in the past, not just that he collects odd desktop trinkets.

                                    Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.

                                          I originally started with dirt maps, blood stains et al, but the scene looked too gritty, like a bad video game. I prefer the clean reflections as this was more a challenge to make the orb look right than anything else.

                                          I have added some finer details to it using paint-shop, see the mad scientist in reflection of beaker.
