Hey guys ... please i need your help

I am right now in the final phase of my diploma in architecture and I wolud need a corian wavy like material for (I think my top shot) one of my interiour renderings ... please if somebody can help me out it would be great. I wouldn't start a topic here if I had some more time and a little more sleep but now i only got three weeks until the cut my head off ...

my problem is the behaviour of the mat itself and the wavy look ...so please all mxm pros open your hearts for a dispired and nearly hairless student ...

ps. i promise to learn better english right after diploma :roll:

so here is the example i wanna touch

That should not be difficult for either Tom or Kurt to reproduce, from what i can see it's a displacement and a white'ish material. What is this thing made of ? what kinda material is it in real life ?

hey max :) yeah i hope those cracks are watching this also :?

The material is called CORIAN and it is a stunning material with nice translucence effects. I really love it.

Materials like these are of course very easy to make with Maxwell, but you need to make some good displacement maps first.
I don't have any maps that looks right, but made this quick test with a map distorted in Photoshop:
