Some of my materials
« on: December 12, 2009, 03:13:41 pm »

This is some of the material, but without proper environment set up they will not look to great.

Lighting in the scene  - Global = 1
                                     Ambient Intensity = .6

The light has ray trace with shadows

The cube - You must flip face normals for the color and attributes to be seen

Play around with the numbers and colors - Enjoy!

An idea maybe; turning the shadows off in the light will reduce the render time with about half.

Since the ball have full reflections and the floor 60%, shadows won't have much effect anyway.

I made a few changes in the lighting and on one of the object's material - See if you can find it.

With shadows off there is not much difference, but you know me I go for the full effect when it comes to stills. When working with dielectric I have to sometimes turn shadows off.
