Another picture for a rendering contest in a german forum. It's tea time.
3000 samples per pixel / 12 hours rendertime
Made with Blender & Indigo

ohhhh.... very nice...
I already see this in the January Blender.org Gallery
Only critic: reduce the red tone of this image... some color correction could push this baby to the edge!

Yes, auto collor correction in PSD makes
sometimes wonders.
Otherwise beautifull!

Excellent detail. The leaves and the spoon handles, eye catching work!

I wouldn't risk that: If you push it that close to the edge, you can't be sure, if it wont fall over.
Great image! I actually like the red light - it adds a nice mood

I want the red tone to give the picture a nice warm mood.

very nice render.
A few things make it look cg though :
- You can spot the studio setup in the golden reflections. Environment map help in those cases.
- And in general, it somehow misses a weak bump map I'd say. You know, just to make it look less "perfect".

I like it very much. I see someone found the leaf texture in Illustrator as well!! LOL!

It looks great, but the only thing that doesn't make sense to me is the reflection within the tea cups. There almost seems to be a cup within a cup. Is this correct of just an optical illusion?
Great render!!

Both

It's a fully correctly rendered optical illusion.
Happens, when a mirror is shaped like this

Looks great, maybe a little to much red, but it adds to the mood.

... and a few lumps of sugar, some biscuits and a spot of cream. Don't forget the slight wisps of steam rising. Hmmm... time for a little something.
Nice work, Furumaru.
