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.

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.

PhilippeV8 · February 17, 2011, 12:16:18 AM

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.

guest84672 · February 24, 2011, 06:01:07 PM

Glad you liked it - thanks for the kind words!
