Trying to get to grips with Indigo
-
At the ArtLantis forums someone asked how to make a lampshade. I tried for hours to make one without success(maybe I am just dumb). It was a no-brainer in Indigo thanks to Whaat's excellent presets...

Anssi, that looks pretty good.
I have a wall lamp that's supposed to have a mica shade. I'll have to dig that model out and give it another try.
I am thinking of giving up on Indigo, though, and sticking with Kerkythea. I've posted several times on the Indigo forum and everyone criticizes the same thing--I've drawn no bevels on the edges. While I agree that bevels would help the renderings, I refuse to add that geometry to my models. My models are drawn to make shop drawings from and don't need that sort of detail. The rendering is more for my enjoyment since my clients don't really care if the images are rendered or not. Since Kerkythea does support bevel mapping, I might as well continue on with it.
Oh, Tomasz!

Yep Anssi, you nailed that lamp shade.
Nice image.
