Nice work Rich.

+1.
Have you used thin glass for the diffusor? If so i would try with clear glass (dielectric) maybe with 2% of roughness. -
I used the clear glass not the thin for everything. It could be how I constructed it though.
Should the outer diffuser be a solid?
-
No, I don't think so. That is for the SSS & medium. Maybe just too thin?
-
always the perfectionist. you're welcome to have a pop at it if you want
-
You're so right...
Gimme. -
Now it looks like a fish bowl

A very quick try with Thea: 4 passes 20 m, TR2 supersampling=high, no post pro (just a little bit of radial glare 3% in Thea's dark room). Keeping your model untouched with the exception of the chrome portion on the inner bulb. Still thinking that 1mm of thickness for the diffuser is a bit little. Also maybe it worth a try to model the diffuser with variable thickness.

I was trying to figure how to a chrome tip that faded to transparent.
Thanks for taking peep
-
Well you're right, didn't tried that.
-
Excellent!
At what step did you use Curviloft?

How is the fade? Still needs a bit more cooking of course.

Can you share the material setup. I've a mapped inner bulb but getting the setup on materials is confusing. Did you texture the inner mesh of the smaller bulb and apply a coating?
-
I've used a gradient map as a mask. In SU I've textured both faces of the small bulb with it. PM'ed both the textured model and the material.
-
it just gets betterer and betterer.....!!!
-
great work rich! Ingenious with the texture massimo!
-
Since someone asked me, here is how the material is made. Quite simple. Rich modeled the bulb with thickness, so the gradient map is applied on both outer & inner face of the model.
Hope you don't mind for the intrusion Rich.

one day, just maybe, the rest of us will catch up with you guys...!!

very clever indeed, much appreciated posting the material settings
