Hi ZOMB,
if you increase the turbidity factor the shadow is getting smoother!

I wonder which modeling package Nick used

[CTZn]

I try to find out what is the special story behind this image...

I think it's about sticking with the topic Zom-B, a conceptual thing

You're such a new-features brain eater

[Zom-B]

I will test this out tungee, thanks for the Info

Yes CTZn, I need my daily doses of new Indigo Features, and I love to browse through Changelogs too

Hahaha I don't want to spoil the mystery, but it's someones birthday and he wanted to make a special present ;D

The sky looks different from anything i've ever seen in indigo.. new built-in skymaps?

[dakiru]

Test. But I don't know how to name it right. There is an emitter at the start (bottom) of the glass stick. Yes, I know it's not a stick, but I don't know how to name it too

[benn]

Wow, so the light goes up the tube and round the bend? That's cool!

[OnoSendai]

Yup: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_internal_reflection

[dakiru]

Yeah, tube, I had to know...

Thanks for the explanation, Ono.

Is it very slow to render Dakiru? Many many bounces in that

The first one rendered for around 8 hours, second one for around 3 on Q9550 2.83GHz. Yes, many of them

I am making a clear version of this test. There is something I don't fully like here.

just a silly and noobish test on a lens model...

in case u need to burn your parquet...

[Schosch]

I didn't model the parts myself, I used the LDraw part library and LeoCAD to convert them to a usable format.
Built using official colors and instructions (it's a Star Wars destroyer droid... at least the core of one).

Indigo 2.0.9, 5000 spp
Homemade HDRi environment
