Michalis, btw my paintings has evolved again into another direction. I am setlling with this using woman as generalized subject infusing "alibata" our pre-colonial script. I am using lots of architectural related material like sand, cement putty, coats that protect stell from rusting, waterproof materials to create texture.

On this perfectionistic environment, well it's perfect and peaceful. !
Two notes,

• these are probably your own paintings and they look more interesting to me than any render engine.
• This shadow casting, there's some inconsistency on this, no, some unnatural phenomenon. Too blurred effect indicating that sun is near us. Too close...

thanks michalis.. no those paintings are not mine they are hai's a friend. I am not sure about how vray sun works. all i did was to increase a bit the size of the sun. But one thing i notice, when the object is far from the area where the shadow is being cast then its blurry. The further it is the more it becomes blurry.

try to turn off your physical camera and sun

HI Micha thanks man and nice to see you again.. The water was not ticked so that it wont be overriden by the Global Override Material. It was purposeful so as to create contrast between the clay and the water.

Thanks guys for your respond. Arty that is another excellent suggestion.
