Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hi.

This is a small project I helped some students with. They invented this hanger and wanted a nice picture of it. So this is what I came up with.

And offcourse, I couldnt resist trying maya new nCloth with it, so heres a simple animation to.

The students where overwhelmed btw.

animation isnt working for me.... fix fix!

looks nice.. definatly wanna see the animation..

I hope that the pixalization issue gets fixed with maxwell 1.2

Admin has removed my files from my server, and I cant do anything about it until Tuesday. Checka back then.

If you could use a higher resolution wood map, that'd look better.

Definitely wouldn't have thought that was a Maxwell image...

You must have a all-girl class...

...I wait for the animation....then I will write a comment.....

personally I love the image... however it is quite stylized and 'cg' looking. I figure that's mostly due to the lighting. Lighting makes or breaks a render in the 'reality' department. Try a stronger more directional light sources. Allow for shadows.

Try using HDRI lighting also with an actual indoor pano. The geometry looks good, just the rendering is a problem.

of course, if you were shooting for high gloss CG, then forget everything I just wrote.

Thanks all.

Tom, I will have that in mind until next time.

Mike, Why? Is it cuz the lightning?

deadalvs, no, its not a all-girl-class, but the girls in the class are taking the leaders. So, I guess you are right.

jurX, I will upload it later today. I forgto about it. (Its really just a nCloth-test, nothing special)

iandavis. You may be right, but it was a non-payed job for some students, and I didnt want to spend to much time setting up lightning. And I already used an indoor HDRI...
