good job!!! the new version of spider lamp ?
those times are due to the emitter material on a surface of many polygons as is the area that focus. -
Thanks. I was wondering what caused those lines.
-
Very nice remus.

Indigo indeed, and it only took 18 hours
18 hours! that's like watching paint dry
Seriously, though that's not a good carbon footprint. Look at all the electricity that was used just to make a 2d light bulb, look 3d.Are we all going insane?

I dont own a car (or plan to), so that sort of cancels it out.

So why did it take that long? (even Maxwell does not take that long)
- slow CPU?
- slow rendering execution?
- other?
-
In this case I think it was a combination of slowish CPU, large output size and the single light source.
Could I ask what makes you think maxwell would be faster? I would have thought the render times would have been pretty similar really.

It used to be similar until I finally got a quad core machine.

Alas i'm stuck with a mere dual core. I'm sure a render farm would fix that, though
-
nice job on the SSS... shade looks great.... i dont think maxwell would be any faster, personally.... depending on the settings for the SSS material on the shade..
-
I didnt bother with sss for the shade, kept it single face thickness and used a diffuse transmitter. Just me being too lazy to model the shade with thickness, really.
-
haha....even better

Its hard to compare resuslts, I'm just learning, and test driving V-ray for SU
It did this simple rendering in 7 min.
-
Just a mini update, heres the real thing for comparison.

Remus, Nice job. I like the warmth of the light. Make me want to take a nap....
-
Is that a missing petal? or is it a design feature?
-
i suppose you could call it a 'feature'
Its more my dodgy workmanship really. -
oh, looking back the first render I get it now. The petals are in pairs, so there are gaps on purpose. In this photo, only one gap is visible, sort of looked like a single missing petal.
Is it stained glass? Did you slump the glass yourself?
-
It's tissue paper that i sprayed with PVA
A lot easier to work with than glass. -
This lamp is full of surprises. Quite nice, well done.
