My corona random stuff.

Now is the time for feathers... a cat in feathers... highly reflective feathers.
Like hummingbird feathers...

Cool model for testing but I think you waster its potential. The feathers could produce some really interesting results, how about adding translucency to them? The rendering seems overexposed, burned, but there are no visible shadows, no background, just the model floating in space.

Well... after tons of trial and error finally i got one that makes me proud enough.
I have been working in this for several days by now, and i think i nailed one kind of feathers.

Thanks maru for the feedback i think i could not have done this without your advice.

I let the scene here... someone maybe has the time to better improve this. Or at least make a pillow figth XD.

Another a little more complicated feather stuff.
It's kinda tricky to make good looking feathers.
It looks good from close range or far range but i could not achieve both.
Must keep testing.

Corona is fun to work with!

[borisquezadaa]

I decided to put feathers test aside until i found or came up with a better way of locating feathers over a surface than forest pack.
Today is time for a little fun.
This time working on a common Chilean beverage called "mote con huesillos", we drink that a lot on summertime.

Corona is awesome.
As usual... and as exercise, no more than 10 minutes of rendering time.

borisquezadaa, about positioning feathers,  have you tried standard hair&fur?

It works pretty well IMO.
I have a tutorial about exactly this if you want it I'll post the link here.

Cheers

Hi juang3d... post the tutorial link so i'll have a look!.
Its possible to affect scale as well as orientation with hair and fur?. If so, maybe i can use it cause rigth now i'm a little stuck.

[borisquezadaa]

A little better version... i'm very tempted to try caustics and dispersion. Who knows, maybe i have the patience required to wait for it.

Hi. Very nice renders. I think the camera angle from the first one is better, as well the spoon. But very nice droplets on the second pic.

Here you have, it is an old tutorial from my old blog, but since Hair&Fur remeains unchanged, it is still valid :)

Many thanks for the link.... i'll have a look.

Time for some really sexy caustics.
+1 for a way to isolate just those to compose later!!!...
I compared them with the real glass and as usual, corona kicks all kind of asses. (minor firefly cleaning required).

And i came up with a workflow to produce this in a comfortable way.

Mind sharing said workflow?

Yep, what's that ? I suck at caustics and can never get them to look good in pool.

[borisquezadaa]

Sorry for the delay... i was trying to put all the ideas togheter.
I made a humble tutorial for quick reference.
