waiting for maxwell 1.0 beta, just another flashy chair:

[tom]

as always incredibly real rivoli
but don't you also think that caustics are a bit harsh?

[rivoli]

i don't know, i had a photo as reference (well, sort of), the caustics casted by the chair are exactly as the real ones (more or less). they are emitter size dependant and in this case i used a very small one.
the problem is we can't control caustics per object as yet, in this case the floor is not supposed to produce all those strong caustics (in fact it wouldn't in real life).

[tom]

maybe floor needs to be more glossy then

[rivoli]

it might be, but it looks blurry enough to me. and it's not that reflective either.

That last chair has got to be a photo

[rivoli]

eh, i don't know why thomas, but these flash renderings always look very photoreal. still wondering how come.

pedro, i'll upload the texture somewhere (it's not that much of a picture anyway) and let you know via pm.

just another chair, i can't seem to model and render anything but eames' seatings:

beta 1.2.2a, 14 samples reached in about a couple of hours each image, one emitter in scene

Very nice material and light

[rivoli]

thanks guys. actually i started it as a sss plastic chair test, but at the moment it takes too long to clear up, more than 4 hours for a noise free image at this size.

Rivolli, I love the plastic texture, nice work.

[heiki]

Plastic material is just perfect!

[iker]

I love your realistic studio setup and materials rivoli

[tom]

Yes, plastic material is great!
