Seems like it's made of metal, so I'd try tweaking it's material to be a bit more shiny, and perhaps reflective. When'd ya start using Blender?? ----------------------------------- Tony Sat Feb 04, 2006 9:28 pm ----------------------------------- Seems like I think that a non-metalic flower would be less shiny/reflective. In fact, the light should be much more diffused. ----------------------------------- Mazer Sat Feb 04, 2006 9:39 pm ----------------------------------- Seems like I think that a non-metalic flower would be less shiny/reflective. In fact, the light should be much more diffused. But then it would look less like it were made of metal, which isn't what I was suggesting. But that's the way I looked at it, Electro mandate's idea is what counts. ----------------------------------- MihaiG Sun Feb 05, 2006 11:42 am ----------------------------------- its el comandante!!! grr.. its even in my signature... i started using blender about month ago imt rying to make the flower more realistic...i added some fading between light pink and a beige for the petals... i forgot to add some tangent shading on the thorns though..... i need to work a bit more on the glass .... the wood is a bitmap i got of the internet i couldnt manage to get a god effect with blender that suited my needs :(
