and with vray

the vray render is like the white part has a different light source. why is that?

(both renders are made with nurbs > isoparm > detach surface)

You are using default light sources? I guess vray default light is in different place to MR. Also I would advise against using standard BLI shaders and suggest using Vray shaders. The BLI shaders are not physically accurate as far as I remember.

[sifidis]

which menu are these shaders located at?

[Dariusz Makowski (Dadal)]

U mean VrayLightMTL ? U open hypershade and on the left you have list of shaders... its on the top of it most of the time...

[sifidis]

which vray shader gives the shine of blinn? do i have to combine diferrent shaders? i can't figure it out.

[Morbid Angel]

use vray material in the create shader menu

[sifidis]

which particular vray shader equals blinn?

which particular vray shader equals blinn?

There is no V-Ray shader that is 100% the same as Maya Blinn one. However, you might be able to get a similar result with a VRayMtl material with Blinn BRDF and "trace reflections" turned off. Then you'll have to play with the reflection color and the glossiness to get a similar result as the Maya Blinn shader.
