Re: CHALLENGE: Lamp shade/glass material

Re: Rendering my Flat

It's very good, Spooky, try hold shift key while zooming out with your magnifying glass tool in SU. This will give you a wider camera angle. After rendering, straighten the verticals in Photoshop or similar program. When you build a curved object in SU, if you can see the segments in SU you will se...

Re: Rendering my Flat

realestate.com? :?: seriously though - corners seem a bit sharp, is the material on the fridge brushed metal? I already rounded the corners and edges on everything that has rounded corners or edges IRL. The cabinets and countertop certainly don't, as my bruise collection can demonstrate. The fridge...

Rendering my Flat

Here is a render of the kitchen in my flat. Yes, it really is that tiny, er, cozy, yes cozy, that's the term... Comments / suggestions welcome.

Finally!

After a year of working with Twilight, I am finally turning out renders I feel comfortable showing to the rest of the community. And here is the first of several...I was going for an early to mid 80's sci-fi book cover feel with this, and I think I got it. I do have some problems with the spherical ...

Re: Transparent Light Emitters-Is this possible?

had two more images, had to split the post. Sorry. And that basically defines what I was trying to do. I want the LEM to do it's job and put out some visible light, so it looks like a high intensity light source, but I also want it to function as it supposedly does with regard to windows.Oh, and if ...
