Cheers guys.

Just been testing out the new interpolated reflection. It came out pretty good in the end and brought down render time by quite a lot too!

Needs a lot more detail, but then I haven't worked on this bit for a while hehe

That looks really good

Elokim-Supreme · 08-30-2008, 03:55 PM

amazing!

Looks a little fuzzy mate, but I guess anything that lowers the render time when you are still modelling it has to be a good thing

Sorry about missing your message last night btw... Busy weekend here!

**tobian** · 08-30-2008, 04:22 PM

Yeah it does look a little fuzzy, but then maybe I need to lower the reflectivity a little, as it is meant to be a grainy/brushed surface, rather than a mirror like chrome. the balance is a tough act!

Interpolated does look good, but it is a bit blurry. Kind of suits this a little - just needs tweaks

No worries, I just thought you were out doing your usual Friday night thing last night

Cheers guys!

Very Nice Andrew.

But something is not looking right there the floor and roof look a little close togther.
Are you using any special lens for the camera?

**Martocticvs** · 08-30-2008, 10:35 PM

Very shiny brushed!

How much of that curvature is real, and how much is down to the fake lens?

**tobian** · 08-30-2008, 11:07 PM

Haha you know me - special wide angle lens all the way!

However, in answer to your question Freak: The ceiling on that balcony is not all that high, being highest close to the balcony area. http://www.3dghetto.com/tobian/foot-grab52.png. You might have to duck down a little, but then it's not really a practical space or used for anything other than observation
