It was an accident that my light bulb size(radius) was at 50.8

50.8 is millimeter equivalent of 2 inches, the default light size.

[edmund]

thank god. I was looking at it like "really?" thats what I made the light bulb size.
thanks for clarification

Thanks Dale

Those looked really good, Edmund.

Now, they say imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, so I hope Remus doesn't mind my try to achieve a similar look to his blue rubber dragon:

ok, been putting it of, but here is my V-ray attempt.

i used a preset as a guide and made this material, not sure what it is!
its has some mega harsh shadows which i have no idea how to get rid of as i am still learing V-ray.
Rendered in less than 40s which i was mega impressed by!

Oli, this is supposed to be Sub Surface Scattering, not Sidewalk Surface Splattering

[olishea]

lol do you like the motion blur? haha

by the way, ecuadorian: is that blue rubber with twilight? looks very nice

[Ecuadorian]

Yup, here you go. Make sure to upgrade to TWL 1.1 to render it.

Quick rendering with V-Ray for SU.. Point light strong so the SSS is visible..

An this is another quick rendering (poor quality) but without Global Illumination and rectangular light:

What a wonderful challenge is the SSS!!

Yummy... mint candy.

Ha ha, great!

A quick Lightup test, is there a reason no one seems to use it?

I'm really just testing a material I made in sketchup, and the dragon looked like a fiery candidate. I'll rescale it (the material) at some point, the movies short...
