Liquids Test Thread

Polinalkrimizei: yes, handmade. Vertex extrude -> subdivide smooth -> detail edit -> spin dup 2x 180 degrees 124 steps -> remove doubles -> recalculate normals outside -> apply scale
Do you use Blender?

edit: sure you do, your screenshots..

Wine glass

[Polinalkrimizei]

Dakiru thanks for sharing!
I actually did my glass the same way, just used curves as a profile. In your pictures the bottom of the glass just looks as if it wasn't perfectly straight, like is has some slight displacement, like I can see in my real wine glasses.
Each time I try to reproduce this effect, it just doesn' look realistic

Looks good Doug.
The only issue I see is dark edges around the orange juice liquid, this is due to insufficient triangulation resulting in poor shading normals.

[Polinalkrimizei]

Very nice render!
Did you try applying the fluid sim and smoothing the mesh a little?

Yes I applied a smooth modifier and set it for about 20 iterations but no other smoothing. I find that for results like this setting the surface subdivions in the fluid sim to 1 or 0 produce snoother results where the liquid meets the glass. I don't use a subsurf modifier after a bake either for the same resaons.

[Polinalkrimizei]

Yeah true subsurf doesn't work in this case, just costs a lot of time. I made good experience with setting the "smooth-button" in the fluid-sim panel to 4 or 5. Looks much better and is much faster.

dakiru: Thats weird cause i get the rainbows... well hope ono can shine some light on this

Stromberg: Well, maybe it is about material. I used Wytraven's OJ material. But, actually, I do not see it in the Material library now...

Polinalkrimizei: Sure, always welcome
I am really not good in modeling with curves.

Doug: It looks like a yummy sweet orange jam. I realized now, that I'm hungry

Thinking toast with marmalade? If there were 'bits' in the material I'd agree .

Note to self - Toast + marmalade for brekkie

Not quite orange juice though I reckon ?

My RAM and new hardrive should be coming today.

(I'm at work right now)

[Polinalkrimizei]

Here's a test render using the WhiteGrapefruitJuice material that pixie did according to the indigo manual. It is a little dark, perhaps because of the env-map, and the mesh just doesn't seem that clean. It is at about 28000 spp now. I think I'll have to abandon this scene...

You will not believe, but I've had toast after , but with tuna.

Maybe more dynamics for the liquid?

[PureSpider]

Just a quick idea, not rendered for long (on my crap pc) whatsoever.
Scene attached in case anyone wants to render it clean

€dit: Wyt is rendering it and will post it soon

[Doug Armand]

Final Update: @4000spp. I also gave it +2 EV as it seemed quite dark
