Code: Select all

Geometry:

       Models made in 3ds max;
       Jar made using Loft, Shell and a little editable poly modelling.
       Oranges made using geospheres and FFD
       Wet on table made using a radient gradient map with noise as geometry (using volume select modifier).
       Ends of oranges are just cap'ed ends of half geosperes.

The textures for the "cut orange ends" was made by putting a fresh orange i my scanner .. and then adding some more edge in photoshop to be on the safe side when using them as textures. That orange juice almost ruined my scanner (they are more wet than they look ) Here they are if anyone in this forum are interested in the textures:

blueplanetdesign: Yeah, I used a static bitmap as bump on the orange peel matching the color map (not that good result so I have to give it a go again). All I use noise for is for creating the pattern of the wet spots on the table, but converted to editable poly geometry (without any procedurals) before rendering with Maxwell beta.

Cool thanks for the file I will have a look and experiment a bit with it, even though I still have not really found good settings for porcelain using Maxwell beta with 3ds max. I would love to add a plate to my scene here sometime

Thanks, great stuff.

Hi Blue,
I made a render recently with wet blood on a chair. I did it by using a red blood spatter as a diffuse and then a white copy of the blood spatter with a black background as a gloss material for it.

That the blood area apears wetter (shiny) that the surrounding map, you can see theeffect in my Maxwell user gallery.

I hope this helps

Very cool looking blood, and thanks for sharing the hint.

Very nice image and thanks for the textures and info!

abgrafx3d: Thanks Wayne!

My suggestion: dosn't use this clean chrom metal. Use a plastic shader with a diffuse component instead, for example specular 150 and diffuse 100.

Ah I never tried making a chrome metal using a plastic shader my self, I guess it somehow should be made like a mirror (reflection all white?). Thank you for this cool idea, I will try.

SUPER!

Thanks
