romullus wips

I saw the other guy on forum posted beautiful renders with vcm: My test of Corona render - Gallery - Chaos Forum and wanted to try it myself, but run into problem of excessive fireflies. Fortunately with the help of other coronauts, here in forum, i managed to find a solution. It seems that vcm don’t like bluriness in reflection and refraction slots. Especially in refraction. Put some map in that slot, other than white and you’ll get a horde of fireflies.
Anyway here’s my attempt:

Quick and simple scene, that i made just for fun of it:

And what do you change for VCN setup?

[romullus]

Nothing at all - render settings were default.

Excellent result, congratulations!
thanks for the explanation

Another wip from me. Car model is by Stelu Harsan.

This was my first attempt at corona rendering. I was very amazed how fast i was able to learn basics of corona. Especially after mental ray :]

great
i like it
maybe the foreground concrete need better displacement

[kennyisimi]

wow! your first attempt is too good to be true!.. weldone

Nice improvements on the images, I liked the car in the studio, you can give some hint on settings in the shader car paint, looks good.

[romullus]

Sure, but material itself is very simple.

[frebel]

Thanks for share, i’m comparing all solutions that i found in forum for carpaint shader and testing

[romullus]

One more image of concept car. I tweaked carpaint a tad and added some eye candy.
I like how much contrast i can get straight out of renderer. With Corona, i can throw photoshop through the window :]

[romullus]

Some chap asked me to share floor material of my latest rendering. So here it is. Studio setup and material itself:

[romullus]

Testing procedural galvanized steel material. I might eventualy replace procedural map with bitmap, if manage to find decent quality one.
Very early wip.

@Keymaster

nice bucket rendering

+1 :]

Second attempt. This time with the help of bercon maps. To be honest, i hoped to achieve better results with these awesome procedurals, but beeing long time mental ray user, i have no experience with bercons whatsoever :[
Next step will be bitmaps, i guess.

In my opinion, previous one was more realistic.

With two layers and distortion… you’ll be good to go I guess
