      Threw in a few extras, to make it 'LOONEY SCIENCE'.

      I really like the Tesla orb, I think I nailed it.

              The last render pete is almost perfect, some sss on the mouse and straight to galleries like 3dtotal. And some dirt, always πŸ˜„

                Solo,

                That last rendering is pretty great. My only comment is that the desktop is so clean -- it hardly fits with a mad scientist. I would throw in some dust/cobwebs, scorch/burn marks, and/or cracks in the tiles. Make it look like he his done crazy (gone wrong) experiments in the past, not just that he collects odd desktop trinkets.

                Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.

                  Well just cuz he's mad doesn't necessarily mean he isn't neat.

                      I originally started with dirt maps, blood stains et al, but the scene looked too gritty, like a bad video game. I prefer the clean reflections as this was more a challenge to make the orb look right than anything else.

                      I have added some finer details to it using paint-shop, see the mad scientist in reflection of beaker.

                        And then it smells like burning rubber for the rest of the day. I haven't seen smoke yet but ...

                          Pete these are excellent renders. About dirt, an idea is to use a clay render, overlay a dirt texture, then combine it with the original great render you have here. Just a PP idea, eraser tool is the key.
