30 Watt Fishbulb

If you plug the bulb in, an easy way tocook a fish soup...

**It's amazing idea and work ،In particular the 2th photo
thank's**

Hope you do not mind, I liked the idea so much that I thought I'd give it a go too.
I used Vue for the render.Not at all, v nice. Your fishbulb appears to be a lot more robust than mine! I have to say i'm interested in trying out vue. So a few quick questions for the vue master: whats the learning curve like? and which package would you reccommend (as there seems to be loads). Thanks

I think both renders would serve well with a touch of caustics reflection on the ground as the light passes through the water in the bulb.
-
Very nice renders both. When rendering, do you set the glass material to 0% opacity and reflection to 100%?

Totally agree, but I don't think I have that option with Hypershot? correct me if I'm wrong
As far as I know, v-ray is the only renderer supporting caustics at the moment.

JeffWell with hypershot its simply a matter of applying a default glass material that comes with the program. If I was to make glass with Podium however I'd probably make a translucent material, set it to 10-15% opacity, and 85-90% reflection.

Well....I finally bit the bullet. I just bought VRay for SU. I'm feeling a bit sick all of a sudden. I better take next week off from work ...LOL.

JeffNah your going have to work overtime now! V-ray is the benchmark so definitely not a bad investment. Learning curve is a bit horrible though, so brace yourself for a stressful first few renders. Hmm I'd actually like to try this current render out with v-ray.. or maybe let someone else do it - how about you clickdraw?

Sure PDC,
I'll give it a go for sure. I'm just waiting for my activation code via e-mail but once I have it I'm in! Post your model for me or PM me. Thanks for the chance

Jeff a Vray render of this would be great, nice one to sharpen your teeth on.
Vue does caustics too, I chose not to have them as they complicated the scene to much (looked very busy)
Vue's learning curve is hard to assess, I learned it so long ago, on version 4, it was easy as I only used it to create terrains for use in Max, and over time I started to learn it without trying to learn it. Vue is pretty straight forward really, the only difficult part is the node based functions IMO. -
Cheers for the info solo. The scene is available to everyone to download for seven days.

Hey prince
Thanks for sharing the model. I ran the bulb through SDS with 1 iteration and then gave it a go with hypershot. Render took about 3 min.
-
Vue again.
added a 'green' one too.
-
Pete, that's great!! The caustics make a world of difference. Did they add a lot of render time?
-
Actually it was faster this time as I reduced the radiosity (I had radiosity and skydome in first one) and slightly increased the ambience, so the render was slightly faster, I did enable the 'accurate caustics' in render settings.
-
Glass and fluids in glass are extremely difficult to render in Sketchup (if not impossible).
The normals are difficult to control.Here's my try, but it is completely wrong:
-
I thought that I would add a V-Ray version. This is set in exactly the same scene as you uploaded it.
It took about 30 minutes to render on my twin core duo.
I wasn't too happy with my result, so I thought I'd try again.
The fish still looks like it's been pasted in afterwards...!

-
That's just wrong! -
Not to beat a dead horse, but I had this idea......
