      I am an author, and I am used to creating "glory shots" of my books. I create a 3d copy of my book in SU, importing images that I add to the faces. I then export it out as a .jpg file and add reflections in Photoshop. Sort of a long, drawn out process. I am hoping to find a simple renderer (if there is such a thing) that works inside of SU that will work for these images. Any ideas?

        Got a reference image of a 'glory shot', I cannot get my head around what you require.

          These setups are relatively easy in any render app. Do you have a model you can share? Members here usually like these little challenges.

            I appreciate the help! If I can use a renderer to make these, it will be a great timesaver!
