Light Bulb Experiments
-
Some light bulb experiments involving emitters and caustics. The two on the left are a Poliigon model and the others are from 3D Warehouse. I'm working on my own light bulb but that can take an eternity. This is in D5 Render with the modeling done in Sketchup.

suuuper! -
Cool experiments

-
Excellent renders!

These are cool.. i wonder what they'd look like with more accurate warm coloring?

I think a few years back Massimo had a similar render in Thea. He has such an astute mind for rendering and the dark science behind it.
How are you calculating the power? Eyeballing it? On an old Kerkythea thread there was a discussion about tungsten filament, kelvin values and surface areas. Way above my head but it was super interesting to see people bang heads to recreate physically accurate bulbs in 3D.

I just eyeball it.

For a mark one adjustment, very sharp.
