Igor's renderings
-
You bviously havent had a good chance to use indigo yet
(although i havent used podium 2 either 
)What was the problem in the end?
I look forward to seeing some renders form you (and indigo!)
-
hey, thanks for the encouragement. I'm posting this from my brand spanking iPod touch! Anyway...
Remus, the problem was that i didn't copy a certain folder to the indigo folder. I feel stupid now
I've run into a problem though, when I try to make something, say a sphere, out of glass, it ends up looking opaque black in the render. Any certain procedure I have to do? Thanks! -
Good choice of ipod
ive got one as well As for the glass material, are you applying it from the skindigo materials editor or in SU?
Basically you need to apply it in the skindigo materials browser, as normal transparent materials in SU are just treated as diffuse rather than clear.
To get in to the skindigo materials browser: double click on a texture in the SU materials window OR right clcik on a surface with the material applied->edit material.
If youve got any more questions dont hesitate to ask, it took me quite a while to understand what even half of the buttons/features do in skindigo and id be more than happy to pass on my accumulated knowledge
(what little there is, anyway.) -
the classic, refined
sorry if its really big
-
im sure no one is posting because you're all in shock of the amazing-ness of my above rendering.
just joking
-
Indigo i take it? good to see you using it. Have you been convinced of its brilliance yet?
And nice render as well, almost forgot to say that
-
no remus, i have not been convinced of its brilliance yet. im simply waiting patiently for podium 2.0
this is simply my training for setting up scenes for light refaction and all that. -
Keep playing with it igor, oyu can get very good stuff with it
-
Indeed, those are rather weird, in a pleasing sor of way though
Is it just a ball on a mirror or is there some funny business going on?
-
yep remus, just a ball on a mirror. they reflect eachother inot infinity, but we only see part of it. really cool looking.
im going to try at making something in the Steampunk style. watch me fail. if you dont know what Steampunk is, search it on google images and wikipedia. its really insanely cool.
-
OOh, after searching google im officialy of the opinion that your model/render is going to be really cool, i look forward to it.
-
thenk you remus. steampunk stuff is EXTREMELY intricate, and my computer mightnot be able to handle the massive poly counts of gears and pipes ECT. whatever.
i would post another render, but my computer is taking forever to save and quit the rendering. like i said, my computer sucks. plus, the icing on the cake, it only has like 15% of its hard drive left! thats (not very) fast!
anyway, the render kind of reminds me of escher. be patient while my next-to-nothing computer closes indigo.
-
ok, sorry for double posting withing the same 5 minutes. but indigo just litteraly finished right when i posted the above post! here it is!
"glass" sphere on pegboard back ground, gives an escher esque effect.
-
here is another. very trippy effect
and another, sitll noisy, but cool looking
PS: sorrry if these renders are really big.
-
dielectric glass?
-
what glass? its just the glass texture. nothing special.
-
Some render engines have a special glass (dielectric glass), i cant remember why they need it though or what special effects it produces
-
Dielectric glass (as opposed to thin glass used for simple windows) refracts the light besides simple reflection (like the one above onóbviously). Each transparent material has its IOR (index of refraction) thus they are different from each other.
Nice renders, Igor!
-
yea what he said
What did you render this with? -
Ray, theres only one glass material in indigo, so i imagine that's it.
