I love it. Is that gossy effect hard to get? cuz, you know
after seeing so much renders frmo you, all trought Pov-Ray, V-Ray and else-rays, I've decided to try it out myself.
So...greetings, main source of inspiration !
Good luck if you try POV-Ray. Read, read, read... and code, code, code
Glossy hard to get? Naw, POV has include files that have predefined textures, colors, materials (like glass, metals, etc) and you can use those to get started.
Thanks Max. POV-Ray calls 'em blobs, seems like most other programs call them metaballs, same thing. Its a gradient color_map.
I still want to figure out how to get those prismatic artifacts (caustics?)
Yup, I had the photons on for this peice, and it was slow to render. I'm going to try and figure out the prismatic stuff myself one of these days, but if I can't, I will come knocking. Thanks!
Damn, I stuffed that elephant into the Mercedes, told him to drive his ass to Germany, and he spilled his ice cream all over the car and started crying. Elephants are so sensitive!
Yeah, it does look that way, doesn't it? The Penrose angle occured to me too. This was something I was modelling in Blender, just playing around. But I coded it up for POV-Ray with real blobs becasue I didn't think the glass would be right with a mesh object.
Reminds me of those squishy bath beads that desolve in warm water.

Render times get reeeeeallly slow.
Let me know if you want more info. I have done caustics before.
May I get a bump-mapped surface onto the glass sculpture now? Those caustics can stand some turbulence, I suppose.
But then I'd get my own ass in gear and check out that photon gimmick myself.
And next I want a lilac metalic mercedes, a big bowl of stracciatella ice cream, and a pink plushy life-sized elephant.
Thanks in advance :rolf:

Thanks for the laugh!
