Good idea Remus, what software do you use for your renders

podium, everything else is too complicated for my simple mind

Ahhh Kerkythea's younger brother

Nice clean looking render though

Quick table thats hopefully going to be the backdrop for a few renders in the future.

Thought i better spend a bit of time testing out all those new textures, so did the bowl. I'd like to say it didnt take very long, but i over did it on the poly count (25,000) so SU was crawling. I think i over did the reflection a bit as well, but it takes a long time for my poor little computer to change the reflection on so many faces, so i just left it.

remus

No problem jenu

A little mirror i made (in real life) a while ago. Kinda wish id made it higher poly now...

p.s. sorry jenu, photobucket didnt work

My first try at indigo, and im sold i couldnt get this scene to render properly in podium for love nor money but first time in indige and it looks sort of not to bad. Theres a lot wrong with it (like oly the top surface of th water showing) but i didnt spend much time setting up. swings and rounsabouts

remus

Thanks to bob (greyhead) for the model. Indigo, about 2 hours.

Julius

2 hours?? anyway, it's very good looking!

remus

Yeah, the main render cleaned up in about 30 mins but there was still a lot of noise in the shadows, i'm guessing tis because not a lot of light was getting to them (what with them being shadows and all)which meant it took longer for enough light to fall on them to make it look clean and unnoisy.

Gaieus

Yeah, these caustics renders with dielectric glases can push up render time. Nice output - though I may have used a different floor; maybe a simple colour or a plain plastic like one.

remus

More playing with shiny stuff

Gai, i like using this particular floor because i find it highlights how the materials curves the light, where as a plain floor doesnt show this very well.

And thanks to taff goch for the model ("borrowed" it from the 3d warehouse)

OK, makes sense.

This is another nice one!

remus

Please excuse the frankly shocking quality of this render, as it was meant to be more of an experiment ot see if i could do a working telescope: the conclusion, sort of.
