This is three renderings I made of a Jotero modell first is gold I belive or at least it was my intention. The second is jade (but mor green plastic), and the third is ice or glass. renderings just for fun and to tryout.
pleace comment if you like or want the mats
first of all, those are nice rendering!
comments: i think the big pattern on the wall makes the statue looks small. maybe try to reduce the size of the pattern
i recently saw several indian jade items in a museum over here and there was much more sss (sub surface scattering) going on
also it had veins and was not as green as yours
I agree with dominiquelaksmana about the pattern making them look small. When I fist saw them thought about 200-300 mm tall. But then I noticed skirting which makes the statue about 2m.
However tall they are they still look good. I would suggest that the wall paper actually devalues the statue. Makes them look cheep (but it does give cool reflections in the gold) fake gold fake jade.
I love the modelling and think they are cool. I too am trying to make a statue out of ice. There are threads in Chaos that have helped
Thank you all for your input. I think the reason for the miniatureness of the models is partly because of to much DOF.
Note! I didn´t model the sculpture! It´s a scan downloaded from http://www.jotero.com/
