WIth regards to bolts, isn't there a gang nail plate you can use instead? can't remember the exact term for it.

twan: have you not seen the twilight showcase? they look pretty real to me!

Really great looking render, Scott...

Twillight just doesn't do photorealistic rendering as wel as a few other apps like Indigo, Fry , Max or Vray.

Ooohhh... You forgot to mention the new Thea Render...
I'm amazed that you're comparing applications this way, Twan...
Is the integration and userfriendlyness as good as Twilight for any of the applications you've mentioned...??
And what about the price...??

I looked at the showcase on the twillight homepage, but there aren't many renders that blow me away in terms of realisme.

Happy to hear that you've found some - at least...
I've also seen renders made with the above mentioned render applications that looked far from photorealistic...
I believe this is saying more about the "driver" and not the application itself...

I find this really appealing Scott. I suppose the floor could use a tweak, but pretty powerful image.
Although I'm not sure I'd be allowed in a room that white though
As for Twilight, I've been really impressed with some of the work I have seen. If there was a mac version, It would be in my repertoire.
Some of the twilight materials and images rendered in some of the challenges here have been stellar.
And did I mention price as well?

Hi Scott,

I know that I was comparing apples with pears. Don't get me wrong, The render is great, and Twillight is very good because of the integration in SU and price. But I think the render could be even beter If rendered with another application.

Oli, I've checked the showcase on the Twillight site again. There are only a few masterpieces I think. Its hard to put my finger on it, but I think it has to do with the realism of the materials or lighting.

I agree with Frederik:

Some twilight images I've made even fool me....and I've worked on them!

If scott let this render cook longer, with no noise, I really cannot see how vray could make it any better. Many vray renders are so glossy and colourful they just look wrong. and the price
