Ofcourse, that old IKEA glass scene i made ages ago you still got it
I hope that's not SSS orangejuice inside that frostedglass i see there i can't imagine the astronomic rendertimes it would require to render clean.

It really IS but the rendertime was not astronomic (only if you obey glass/liquid matroska method) It was only 13 hours for SL25.

Having some rough times, Tom?

I thought it's better than watching people breaking hearts.

All of those are top-notch beautiful Tom, ..which begs the question, .... how did that painted straw get in there ? C'mon, looks like I did that. Seriously though -- very nice.

Thanks!

how did that painted straw get in there ?

Indeed, it's just made in China

nothing to do with the post, but (i am sure the question was asked many times). What are the tips to make a good SSS render. It never get clean (i have a 100px x 100px region renderded during 96h on my macpro and the result is ugly.
More coefficient mean more noise for the same render time?
Only using IBL and or just 1polygon emmiter?

Oh okay, ... lead paint I presume.

Check this one out, especially the color of the shadows -
it's always from the opposite side of the color wheel.

From my experience only IBL or IBL combined with emitters will clear sss. Every image I have tried with only emitters the sss never clears to an acceptable level.

SSS in it's current state requires hdr environment for any chance of clearing up to a decent degree.

Thanks guys. Some Tom's advise ?

Yes, brian is correct. We're looking into it and soon to be fixed.

Another version using a roughness map...

, it's looking like ice! I want to lick it

[simmsimaging]

That one is really nice Tom.
