comments on the budda image.
just a few things that I could notice... very subtle
- the shadows on the edge of the stone lantern are very clean, its stone and I would expect a slightly bumpy edge to the hilights on the edge.
- The budda itself has a lot of mottling, which suggests wear and age, but the roughness is completely uniform. There would be a gloss on the sufaces, and dulling around the creases where dust and other coatings would accumlate over the years.
- same with the table... needs a big of roughness variations... even a really subtle photo of dirt would do the trick.
- Shadows on the wall don't match what we would expect from the rough texture shown, they are the shadows of a flat plane... perhaps put the texture into the bump map as well?
very excellent image?
If we had just one lowly SuperStarDestroyer, all of earth's problems would rapidly become rather trite. I mean, who worries about war in the middle east when a 1.5km death triangle is in orbit.
