Nice work Da_Elf,

I’d buy the one on the right if I needed yet another watch.
I’ve been test rendering some watches as well lately. It’s good fun
focuing on the detail. Dare you to try a “glow in the dark” watch.
That’d be cool.

i think you need more poly`s to get the watches smooth and nice…

but anyway… looks nice… :slight_smile:

Hey Elf,
I just wanted to mention something that I’ve learned recently in studying
studio and set lighting. If this were in the real world a photographer
would use either a very large soft box, in our case a VRayLight, just
above the watches or a set of three or four smaller ones tagged together
end-to-end as close as possible in a sort of semicircle.

I guess with the one VRayLight you were trying to get a more directional
shadow but this totally looks like a studio setup so if I wer you I would
pump more light into the scene. The one little square specular
everywhere is a little distracting from the watches.

Also your gold looks a little too yellow and not as, well, golden as it could
be with the VRayMAt. What are your settings with that material?

actually my lighting is bad i know. i setup two lights (actually this is pure geometry lighting with object lights hehe) two lights from either side. and i asked an old boss of mine who is a photographer and he said to put an unbrella light over the watches. which i did with a cone above however i didnt turn up the light that much on it. thanks for the link though

Hey brother I’m learning all this too :smile:

Luckily, I share an office with a guy who once did photography of antiques at an auction house.

Hope the link helps.
