Wouaw ! :shock:
The cushion is awesome !

Something disturbs me about the teapot however. Did you take a reference pic or does it come out of your imagination ? What disturbs is that it looks like who wants to open the lid will be annoyed by the handgrip. Shouldn't it be a little bigger so that it doesn't go over the lid ?

Looks very good, though I don't like that color. Maybe terracotta would look better. Overall I think the teapot somehow looks unrealistic, maybe due to the color. But the leather cushion is amazing. Very nice, looks real to me.

I don't think it's the colour but the shader. It's a blend of two very different phongs - kind of a like a car paint. Maybe not the best choice for a teapot...

I think it looks like a leather teapot. Very cool, but not something I've seen before.

Top notch ! I was prefering the first color, much deeper.

very nice :)
IMHO the teapot and cups could do with some slight imperfections in their shape to be fully convincing..

Thanks guys for the helpful comment. I think I'm going to have one last go at it, mainly the teapot mat, and then render a larger scale image over the weekend. Keep you posted.

Ok, here's what I think is my final version. I've changed the teapot colour, tweaked the mat (less leathery, more mother-of-pearlish), added more imperfections to the surface (bump) got rid of the UV mapping holes, fed it to my Quad and done a tiny bit of postprod.

Hmpf. Sorry, to me the teapot just looks rendered. Nicely rendered, but rendered. Can't tell you why. It just looks as if you've rendered a teapot into a real photo of a leather sofa. :( I like the new colour though, much better than the old one.

Ps: Could you share the leather settings?
