Glass Cross

<< < (2/5) > >>

ronaldefarmer:
Good point, Johnar. It does need something to keep it from falling over. I still don't know about the surface.



This one is rendered in ART. Did you know that environment maps don't work on dielectric materials? I had to copy and paste the cross with a different material to get the environment map in combination with refraction.

ronaldefarmer:
Ambient occlusion instead of shadows--which looks best?

johnar:
Ambient occlusion looks better. Colors are much more pronounced/bright/deep-glassy......
 Nice to have some type of shadow, but if it came to a choice, the bottom pic has a more 'glamorous' appeal about it. :).

ronaldefarmer:
 
I think I'm through with it. What do you think?


johnar:
 That final render looks awesome.
 Nice background, nice tabletop, good shadow and excellent reflection(s).
 I like the final glass color. Looks 'bottle-ish', which makes me think something could be inside it..... but i understand what it feels like to 'finish up and move on'.......

 All in All, well done Ron.  Looks great.
