Fit or Fat ?

Despot · December 03, 2016, 12:52:35 PM

My first ever food render actually - got the idea after thumbing through a magazine whilst in a doctor's waiting room...

As well as the finished composition I've included the full separate renders plus a couple of clays with neutral lighting.

Doughnut scan from _blank Repository - other models were purchased, apart from the rock salt and the micro hairs on the leading tomato stalk which I modeled in Cinema 4D . I also made some custom textures from the ground up in Substance Designer for the tomato skin.

In KeyShot I made heavy use of the Translucent (Advanced) material for both the tomatoes and doughnuts.

I forgot to add, the arrangement of both tomatoes and doughnuts were done using MoGraph Dynamics in Cinema 4D

Curves adjust and floating dust particles added in Photoshop

Thanks for taking a peek.

Those are amazing! I would never have guessed those weren't real!

Are these 3d scans ? Renders are perfect.

I love these, John! Remarkable! I rarely download images here, but I just had to take all these pixels in. It's such a joy to see the level (lvl max) of realism you manage to get out of Keyshot.

Just truly remarkable, John, like everything you do! I've said it before, but I always feel as if I could just reach into my monitor screen and touch your images

Beautiful...

Cheers,
Eric

Simple solution- put a tomato on top of a doughnut and eat it!

These are absolutely awesome, some of the finest work yet by any of us!

Wow, thanks Bill, what a nice thing to say - as far as the tomato on top of a doughnut goes, I suppose if you were hungry enough

I'm speechless, big time!

I don't wish you any harm, but you really need to visit the doctor's office more often if this is what happens afterward. Really man... these are nuts! The tomatoes are my favorite.
