Thanks Kim.

Q: How do you model the bulbs with quads...?

It's a simple "follow me" on something like this.

You didn't notice that I removed the Q before you posted your answer...
Aahhh well... It was actually my mistake...
I know very well that when making a bulb, it will be in quads...
I was struggling the other day making a tank and getting the vertical part with quads...
But I know that a sphere will be made as quads...

Eh, you probably removed it while I was writing my reply. Anyway I have to admit that i was a bit surprised of such a question coming from an experienced and good modeler like you.

It looks like you've succeeded.

Good eye Oli, yes I was exactly after a "golden" light like that.

to me impossible your catch up

Remind me this lamp used for theatrical lighting.

@Alvis: are you kidding?
@Gilles: well yours seems quite a technical lamp with a chrome part. This one is just a big common bulb (12,5 cm of diameter and only 40W of power) with a sandblasted part used to avoiding dazzle.

Brilliant Massimo! Like Oli suggests the IBL is SWEET, particularly as it is in such a reflective surface!

Thanks Richard.
It's a free HDRI by Bob Groothuis called van Kleef 3. Great quality HDRIs there.
