Bottle Caps

[SaadUrRahman]

Part of an old model, dusted off and rendered. Would be nice to have opacity mapping, dirt shading and stuff - would help make the scene more interesting...





I'll put them in a decent scene and render some more pics but to be honest the caps aren't very interesting. Ideas/comments are welcome.

Very nice render. Model is good too.

Ok here are some suggestions

- position them in a more natural way (maybe one lying on top of another a little bit)
- use glossy reflection, together with fresnell option (your materials look more like shiny metals, while these caps probably are coated)
- nicer colors (this is subjective of course)
-more pronounced lighting direction (smaller and stronger light coming from one side, lower angle so you get more pronounced shadows)

Took a break from coding and took flipside's advice on the scene (thanks). Coca-Cola text is not a texture but curves that were extruded and capped. Color adjustments done in Photoshop. IR map settings are very low, I'll up them as soon as I get some more free time to work on them.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

WOW!

Looks great! If you had to, how would you apply a decal? Would a decal from Flamingo stay?

Nice render!

@garrett, Flamingo decals won't work

How did the other renderings have decals? Example: Epson projector?

Thanks!

Updated image, increased IR Samples and AA.

As far as decals/opactiy mapping is concerned, I have no idea. From what I have heard you need to install the brazil for rhino beta to get access to them, and I believe someone pointed out that they aren't very stable...

Thanks. I read that as well about Brazil. Hmm... I hope for the final version we will be able to use decals.

The mapping tools for brazil are a rhino thing, it's not brazil specific. So when they finish it up it will be a part of rhino, and all render plugins will be able to use it.
