This is a nice little tutorial. Thanks, very nice approach.

Beautiful work.

Nice work. A couple of plants would improve it, and not sure I'd want to sit in that chair, looks awfully spindly to me.

skip to 5:00 to see it in Rhino which will be the same as SU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbMykOA04Ac

Nice work! would you happen to have a model of this that you would be willing to share? I'm doing a rendition of my own for my studio and need an accurate model to work with.

that looks very nice. I wonder if playing with the parallel/ perpendicular slots in the fresnel settings (adding a flake map) might do the trick with adding flakes. I'm curious to see how this compares with the Chaosgroup vismats - like thomthom, this is what I've been using as a starting point. Andy

That's looking nice, hmmm, sip. You can also try increasing your refraction depth so you have fewer of the dark reflections in the liquid. If you're using caustics, you could add some point lights to get sharper caustics.
