Cologne bottle
 

This will be my first image ever shown done in lightwave,
please tell me how to improve my work.

Thankyou Alan

Looks pretty damn good for a first image if you ask me.. maybe the glass surface is a little too reflective imho.

keep up the good work

cheers!

Thankyou for the reply Digimatt, glass really is hard to
get just right but I,ll tone down the reflection once again
thanks for the crits.

Alan.

Thankyou
 

Thankyou for your comments S2-Speedy.

Alan.

agreed, glass is a b*tch to get really good, you did a very good job on it though :)

Thankyou
 

Thanks again DigiMatt,
I saw a thread somewhere regarding worms of art
and there presets for glass but I,ve seen no feed
back from anyone who has them.

Once again cheers for the comments. Alan

Try surfing over to Phil's site at www.liquid-arts.de and look at his Jack Daniels tutorial (under 'Techniques'). This should give you a really good heads up on modelling glass surfaces.

Thankyou
 

Cheers Mark.
I,m there.

Alan.

He man,

GREAT looking render. Coincidently I am having a go at a cologne bottle too. Different brand though. Since this is my first go at a real looking object I was wondering. Did you use Real or Fast fresnel?

Cheers,
Oldenburg.

Thankyou
 

Hi Oldenburg,

Thanks for your comments, I,ve not got the scene anymore
just put together a shuttle system and the scene file amongst
other things did,nt get saved.
But what I can remember the surface had a gradient on
the ref channel maybe the dif and spec and also played
with refractive index.
