Well...ya! Welcome back Kwisten , awesome renders!

well done Nomer! The carpet displacement it's sooo.....puffy! I like it!
Congrats!

YOUR KONG-FU IT'S STRONG!!!

Very nice Elisei! Especially the radial blur and the smoke! Congrats!

good one Marian!

v-ray again

v-ray

Hi again! This it's my work for today...and obviously, I didn't have the time for tweaking. Just the basic shape of the furniture, and some materials. I used vray for rendering, with the rendering time @ 30 minutes per image.

Outstanding result, Radu!
Sincer vorbind, ma furnica pe spinare, dat fiind faptul ca am facut liceul la cfr, si in perioada de practica, mi-am petrecut timpul stergand motorina prin panaramele astea de LDE-uri. Esti meserias...bravos!

Congratulations Teo! Now you should go and see the old posts from asgvis..
The newbie became the master...congrats once again!
EDIT:Teo, what version of vray are you using, and how was the rendering time?
Could you please, show us the raw output as well?

OK, I did another test...just to be sure it's still working
I have a diffuse layer with the color, and another one ( ghost layer) witch it's transparent, for helping vray to set the correct UV for the specular map.

Thanks for the link Thomas, here the link for my post....sorry for schrolling...it's on page 2..

Stinkie, yes, it's odd, but it's working.Check the link above.

EDIT: the post it's about HDRI, but on page 2, almost at the bottom, I have some images about specular maps.

Ibon, I have an old post on asgvis, about specular maps, but for some reason, I can't access the site. But,I can tell you where I put specular maps, and it's fine. First , make a reflection layer for your material, then, go to reflection/M/(here you have fresnel)/put your map in the "fresnel color"
I recommend you to use just reflections and specular without bump, to see if it's working. If it's OK, then you can use bump too!
Good Luck!

Well done Pete! I call that "biebel's technique". I mean, cleaning the bump map, with clear separations between white and black.

Radu, what rendering engine are you using?

Bravo Radu! Hai ca ne-am mai inmultit...

Felicitar Teofas! No puedo creer en qué medida han logrado ir!

Ouch! Translucent materials....how long was the rendering time Nomer?

Thanks for comment guys! I'll try to put more detail next time.
Adam,the chairs and the table are 3ds models, from here : http://www.archibase.net/
You have to register, and then you can browse for free models. As you can see, I have some missing geometry over the corners of the chairs. I shared the stove as well here:

Ely, thanks for comment, your last cars are amazing, and I enjoyed the tutorial as well!
Teo, thanks, always nice to see you around!

This it's my last project, v-ray rendering. I used HDRI for background and GI(Skylight).
I'm happy with the result, of course it's not perfect.
Regards,
Stefan
