Silestone -- Commercial

[Spooner]

Alex,
I'd be really interested in some names of artists that have inspired you, if you wouldn't mind. Cinema, Photography, whatever, who's work do you hold in high regard.

again, very inspiring and excellent work.

@Joconnell: You're absolutely right. Sometimes i used BF+Lcache -only a few shots and very carefully-

Hi Alex! I have a question, When you're not using BF+LC are you using Irradiance Map + BF or LC? If not, what else do you use? Great work again by the way!

Nice work! Your photorealism is just perfect! You definitely know your tools! I'm now a Frishluft user too because of you!

And congratulations for your 3dsmax master prize! You won over me!

I was wondering though for which product this commercial was... I was looking for the 60'' TV you mention... So I went to silestone website to discover they make kitchen counter! Ahhh now I understand.

The shading / textures are fantastic.

Could you share some insight to your SSS2 set ups? If the lemons had SSS2, what types of maps are you generally using?
diffuse,SSS color,spec amount, spec glossy, bump?
Cheers
