Self illumination 2.0

(1/2) > >>

Hi,
Some of you might remember my previous project: self illumination. This was a remake of a famous 3d art work of Andre Kutscherauer (this one).

My remake looked pretty, but i wasn't satisfied enough. The lighting wasn't perfect: too light. Same goes for the reflections, they just didn't looked fine to my.
Now i make a second render, again using only anim8or v0.97d with the great ART renderer. And i must say, it came out really nice.
This render toke an amazing 52 hours!! (please steve speed up ART! ;D)too render --> with AA set to 64.

Attached are both renders: first one 1.0, second one 2.0 with improved lighting/reflections.
Tell me what you thing: improved or ruined?

Neither really floyd.
Two images, two different styles and both of equal, high quality. To me it's now merely a matter of preference/taste of one style over another and not which image is the better one.

Indian8or:
I agree.  To me, each image has a different ambience.  Both are stunningly neat.

The first one, because of its brightness, has a unique subtleness to it.  In the second, the elements are more physical.

3D Joe Wiltshire:
I prefer the second, the better reflections, more realistic reflections and bumps, the lighting, and the slight blue light in the bulb.

floyd86:
oke, i think I have found a good mix between the first and the second one.
I used a clay render to make the second one lighter:
