Still a work in progress.
Fun fact: The orange texture came from a real orange from Thomas Teger's desk :)
Wowzers... This, my friends, is a professional at work. What profession are you in?

Hi,
Could you offer us the .bip file for our webinars ?
It will help us to sell KeyShot.

Hi Philippe,
We are actually planning a webinar for next week using this scene. We are still tuning a few things but plan on making this publicly available in the coming week for users to have for reference along with the webinar. I will let you know once it is ready for download.

Took it a little bit further. Fingerprints on the glass, napkin ring and bowl, as well as a thin layer of dust on the table - with a familiar logo formed in the dust ;). The fingerprints are applied as png files with transparency through the labels system.
Hmmz ... dirty bowl and dirty table ... you guys should clean ! :p
This is tremendous!
Very nice work. The grain on the table is not very realistic though. For my furniture renderings I am building a library of high resolution shots of different species, stained and finished in my favorite stains. The wood in this rendering has a very open grain and needs a texture to match. The idea is similar to using the orange peel to render the orange.
I agree. This wood-texture looks more like laminated sheet on MDF.
I think it only uses a texture, not a bump map.
Has anyone else noticed that the orange is actually orange-shaped, and not just a sphere?? Brilliant.
Today's webinar was excellent. There were some great tips. It goes to show it does pay off to have a good attention to detail when it comes to textures. You nearly lost me with all the gamma adjustments, but I will try it out.
Glad you liked it - thanks for the kind words!
Hi DB,

Agreed - great webinar. Worth watching again.
But dang, every time you guys share some new tips I have to go re-visit my old renders :)
