Patterned lighting through lampshade
-
Hi there,
Has anyone ever tried rendering something like the image below - and if so what kind of material setup would you be using? I can't get my head around how to do it... put an omni light inside a spherical ball and add a diffuse map and transparency map?
Thanks for any pointers )
EDIT................. think i just answered my own question, sorry I'm half asleep today!

You would need the create the map to be applied to the sphere and then possibly UVW map it outside of SketchUp, maybe using UVtools and Blender? I dont know. All I know is that mapping a sphere in SU alone is dicey.
