Hello everyone! I've been using Maxwell since Beta/Preorder days.

Finally have a few things which won't be totally offensive to you pros here. At least, I hope so.

I've always lurked in the forums, but have learned a ton from Jomaga, JDHill, Oneshot, and the other rock stars. Thanks for the inspiration.

like the first image best, especially the metallic paint.

yet it looks like they are scaled down wrong, as few images suffer from bad antialiasing issues..

the planes could shine better in a shorter DOF too ;)

cheers

I agree with Aniki that there seems to be some antialiasing issues, also some compression in the first image. What version of Maxwell were these rendered with?

I love aubergine.jpg, the lounger looks great.

The first image is my fav!
Did you save the image with 16 bits colors? because the background gradient is looking bad.

Actually, that's not the problem. I rendered using skydome+multilight since I didn't know what I was really going for. I should have re-rendered with a plain color background. With Environment (skydome) turned down to 3 or 4 percent, this is how it comes out. Just a limitation of our displays, I guess. Actually looks worse in Photoshop as a 16-bit image. A 2% noise gets rid of it, but who wants to add more noise, I just waited hours to have none!

Any fixes for this besides the solid background idea? Thanks,

Marty

I haven't had this problem before but maybe you could try to set the shutterspeed higher so you wouldn't have to set your environment so low. I'm just thinking out loud :)
