[ COMPLETE ] Challenge #2: Render Glasses Using ART

<< < (10/16) > >>

Well, here's my submission, I know it can't hold a candle to most of these... but it only took 3 hours creation and rendering time.

At least i'm in this one!

EDIT: Idea! How about... The 'Winning' submission is hosted in the gallery!
Just an idea.

Cheers $imon.  Rather than attempting to create a floor material that looked like something in particular, I deliberately created a material that could perform a couple of crucial tasks.  First, I didn't want it to overpower the glasses themselves, so the colours were to be muted and basic.  Second, it had to have a rigid linear or gridded surface detail, to reveal the refractive effect of the lenses as well as provide a clear perspective that informed the viewer about the model's position and orientation in space.  Third, I wanted it to be a little bit reflective, to show off that particular ART attribute as well as increasing the sense of the glasses resting on a real surface.

It was generated from a wood panelling texture, softened considerably, with the same image applied to the bump field.  The kinda ripply reflection was actually a happy accident, I had not expected a bump map to have such a strong effect on the specular reflection attribute (nice one Steve!).  It does look kinda plasticy, but really it was intended to highlight the cool ART effects only.

Great work from everybody in this comp BTW, pushing Anim8or and the ART renderer to the limits with some really excellent results.  It's also great to see so many anim8ors getting involved.
