      Oliver, it's done with a light and a caustic pattern overlaid onto a texture in PS, actually very simple. Now with blurred reflections and bump mapping it can be done even better.

      If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

            Richard , that wood panel texture is great. Could you tell what it is? Arroway? Love that pool render. Nice, clean design.

              Thanks mate the design is one of my own! The texture for the timber panel? The one with the screws in I might have edited an arroway and rebuilt to rid the tiling, fix colour and bump, add screws etc. I get so anal the screws even have the head bumped and discoloration of the timber around the head along the grain and the decking a slight cupping in the bump!! My mother was german!

                        brighter3d PRO 2.0 (not yet available).
                        Model from previous rendering competition (a bit cut).

                        True caustics.

                        Settings:
                        Caustics:10
                        Adjust lighting: caustics = 8.90, rest = 0.0
                        Sun samples: 64
                        Sky samples: 781
                        HDR map only as a backround

                        Overall time: 128 seconds
