      Just a revamp of a project.

      Pretty pleased with the end result as it looks strikingly similar to the real thing.

          Indigo indeed, and it only took 18 hours πŸ˜„

          And and before I forget, thanks once more to fred06 for his bend script. Last time I tried this I had to use FFD and it was a bit of a nightmare, with bend it was plain sailing πŸ‘

              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.

                    18 hours! that's like watching paint dry πŸ˜„ 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? πŸ˜„

                      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)

                        1. slow CPU?
                        2. slow rendering execution?
                        3. 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 πŸ˜„

                                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.

                                      It did this simple rendering in 7 min.

                                            Is that a missing petal? or is it a design feature?
