I like it a lot, though I think the slight kink on those sticking out things looks a bit out-of-place.

I also like what you did. Part of the flower is too dark in my opinion...but not by much!

It looks great, but I agree with Steinie, it's too dark.

Is it intentional or is your monitor set to bright ?

(only asking because that's happened to me, I've made a lot of dark images:rolleyes: )

Thanks guys for your comments, looks liek I need to have a bit more of a look at this, I have an LCD monitor and although I can adjust the brightness and contrast there seems to be very little difference. The image is quite dark yes, I did want it dark, but not dark so no-one can see it heh, Also I think ill leave out the cable on the right, I think it takes away from the image, update soon

I love it! What shader settings did you use? I've yet to get glass that good!

I used the standard glass shader, no changes were made heh laziness I guess but the results were perfect


I guess its more about the HDRI map used

Brilliant! I love the visual gag in this - light bulbs/flower bulbs. That's quite a bright idea. I love the texture on the flowers too

This is beautiful work Matski! You do glass and metal really well. :D


I was going to suggest giving the glass something to reflect and adding some specular highlights, but I see you've already done it. :o


Definitely one for the portfolio/gallery!

Agree with all of the above, this image was excellent !

Lighting, DOF and reflections make it a very interesting piece of art ! :D

Great image, glad you lost the cable as I found that distracting in the first version. The reflections really help too - would be interested to see what that HDRI image looks like - is it just a series of windows?


Classy job...
