my amphora- texturing study

[giraffe]

hi
this is an amphora.
it is used to carry wine or olive oil in the archeological times.
sometimes they are found buried under ground or sometimes in ship wrecks.
I made this studio setup to study some texturing.
it is the first time I unwrap and create my own texture.
I made all diffuse and glossy and displacement maps on PS.
and rendered with vray.
all crits are welcome

impressive texture work!
just guess i would look for a less tidy shape....something broken or cracked....but thats just me...hehehehe

[giraffe]

ehehe thx for quick reply
I think u r right. I was planing to do that but this took me so long that at the end I was bored and decided to abandon the scene

I wanna party with the person swilling out of this two handed vessel. "Ya baby!"

Nice rendering! Cracks and chips would be nice, but I know the feeling of being bored of looking at the same little model too long and feeling that it's time to move on.

[Da_elf]

[joconnell]

Jeez you'd think you'd clean some of that crap off it before you were going to show it to anyone...

[s0real]

really nice - well done!

did you use a wacom (or similar) to paint the maps?

[mcvltd]

Very nice! Any chance of showing us some of the 'unwrapped' textures? Just curious.....

[TRGraphics]

Beautiful!

I drank from something that looked alot like that last night. Oh, my head hurts for some reason today.

[nvanherpt]

i'm convinced!

Mybe the specular could be broken up a bit with a seperate map in the rough areas, but all in all quite well done.
