Well, very nice indeed. I watch your work with great jealousy!
As someone involved in fluid dynamics I notice these trivial things in other peoples work. The average observer would not see it I think.
The area of the rendering where the fluid surface meets the glass is called the meniscus. it regularly forms a concave surface at that point of contact. Think of that surface as an elastic surface. It sort of sags under it's own weight.
In section (or profile) we see a very slight up-turn as if the liquid wants to "crawl" up the side of the container.
In renders this can be something that gives the overall effect of added realism.
me·nis·cus
n. pl. me·nis·ci (-ns, -k, -k) or me·nis·cus·es
The curved upper surface of a nonturbulent liquid in a container that is concave if the liquid wets the container walls and convex if it does not.
Nonetheless, your work is beautiful. I do not want you to think I am critical.
blueplanet: thanks a lot for information but my english not enough to understnad the details
here is wireframe:
and juice settings are:
diffuse: grey 139
reflect: rgb 245,173,114 fresnel on
refract: noise map
fog color rgb 241,204,146 fog mult:0.03
translucent: white
thickness: 180
light:30
it's looking extremely well.. If you could couple the first and second image, metal from the first and juice from the second, I'd be happy. Love the tequila sunrise feel of your second liquid.
I don't think I'd actually want to drink from the glass though, unless I had in writing from the producer that the handle is properly attached to the glass with a third component, like glue.
The handle doesn't seem to reach far enough around the glass to keep it in place, glass should be slighty conical aswell, but this is only me going detail-crazy.
