I still have questions to answer with technique but basic setup seems to be done. High Quality selected in Rayscaper Render.

I 'tagged in' because I saw a decent guy who is having to say the least, not the best time of it unfair criticism. The comments that ebbed around that were imho, OTT.

I went too far for which I apologise. Allow for none of us having the best week going.

Sorry folks, have a great weekend and stay well out there.

I think he is talking about Blender 4 Artists which has a slightly different take on the interface, simplified basically.

Looks like my version of idyllic. Fantastic to see so thanks for sharing.

I cannot call it smart because it does not go online to order teabags and milk etc. Skynet would get it's power shut off if it tried.

I think a bit of a bump surface will help at some stage but will have to find something subtle for that.

Magic mate, another smile maker.

I think he is doing a great job tbh. No complaints.

@L-i-am

Sorry to hear that 'load' you carry mate.

It seems big business is too big on 'we can do this' and not big enough on 'should we do this'.

A bit like the micro plastic beads in cosmetics being found in the food chain and now in human bodies.

Some good news is that more and more cancer viarieties are being 'lived' with. I know of two others with prostate cancer who are going to have a so called normal lifespan, they just have to share their carcass with cancer.

Might not be a cure but if it does not prevent us living our lives, it is a fair compromise.

We used a chemical cleaning agent years ago, just plastic gloves and a paper mask (Which had asbestos in them then) and we were told it was fine. By the time I stopped working in hospitals, this agent was only permited to be used in exclusion tanks with hoods and controlled filtered ventilation due to it being carcinogenic. How many more 'problems' which were known then, are we not hearing about.

When I visited the flat I now live in to inspect and sign the contract, I looked at the smashed up tiles on the floor, with dust everywhere and said. "Those things look like asbestos". "No". I had to have a floor laid over the top because haig refused to fix the floor. They have now admited the tiles ARE asbestos and so is the dust that was floating around.

I suppose the fact is that chemicals do not harm people when handled correctly, human ignorance and stupidity do.

@L-i-am

The art museum has some interesting gelleries, perhaps this item would work well in that setting?

For Architecture preference.

NASA are being gutted, stand by Musk? Not that friends are favoured in any way. Remind anyone of putins actions?

Cooler here today, picking at a favourite topic, cars.

This Porsche 356 Carrera comes from the Sketchup texture club. It took/will take a fair bit of cleaning up for render within Sketchup but it is a solid, quality model.

This model was made by Fred and left on the Twilight render forum, thought I would dust it down, give it some air in Rayscaper.

@B2Pi

G'day Troll.

Treating you OK in that hotel with comfortable wallpaper?

Nice Smarties?

Good.

Light, Irfanview.

This is the same model as I used in my Rayscaper thread but rendered with Twilight V2 pro.

Some changes in finish like, gunmetal instead of chrome. Aside from that, not much difference.

Apparently, t rump and co, requested that a well respected ally cease sending military equipment to Ukraine. Said ally allegedly informed the person making the request (Whitehouse) which direction to wobble in.

Then again, t rump accuses Ukraine of starting the war.............

A little stability at the moment. Not sorted yet but moving forwards.

@pixelcruncher

The scene is available via the 3d warehouse via 'desired space'.

The second light source is below the one you see illumiated, in the lower of two wicker light shades.

Light settings are the same as the other, 1w and 1.25m radius. 4000k.

If you deem any of my renders suitable for promotion, go for it.

I accept gold bullion and uncut diamonds as remuneration.........

Lights more visible here?
