Syringes

The glass looks a little too prism like.

I used the glass preset (specular material.) I wasn't sure what to put for the scattering coefficient or the cauchy b.

Good start, but I don't see the connection between the medical and the wiimote....

For some people, Wii is like a drug craze.

What should I put for the cauchy b and the coefficient?

Well, I think people won't automatically make the connection between the syringes and drugs in this image, unless something more of a clue is given.

Can't help you with cauchy b and coefficient, sorry.
The trick will be getting the 'precedence' for both media (glass and fluid) correctly.

Maybe the material experts on this forum can be of assistance...

Yep, I set the precedence for the glass to be higher than the fluid.

Hi neo, maybe the fluid should have precedence higher than the glass

No, the glass precedence higher than the fluids is just fine, just use a b_coeff of 0 for the glass as the coefficient marks the dispersion (prism effect) of the glass

sorry guys, I've problems with my bad english

zsouthboy wrote:Precedence allows you to model volumes without having to hack them up to put them inside one another.

For example, you can enclose your scene with a SSS air volume for a fog effect, and give it a precedence of 1.

If you have another volume (say a cup of water) in your scene inside the air, you just choose a higher precedence for it to "displace" the lower precedence volume, so 2 or higher.

and put a piece of SSS plastic in that water -> precedence of 3 or higher.

The SSS plastic will automatically displace the fog and the water, and the water will automatically displace the fog.

mr_jo, the glass still has to have higher precedence than the fluid

(except neo0. modelled the syringes as if they are solid glass cylinders and added a fludicylinder, to get the hole...)
How ever it might be, precedence looks right, here.
I only never saw a glass syringe - they usually are made of plastic with close to no chromatic dispersion....

thanks Kram I'm sorry for my misunderstood

P.S. I have a doubt

example: if I have a glass with prec=1 and a fluid whit prec=2 this for me means that the fluid has higher precedence (2 major than 1), is correct? or the minor number (1) means higher precedence?
Sorry again

ooohhhh I remember it very well

when I was child the syringer was made of glass and let it boiled in a can before the sting, and I was terrorized of them

The precedence number should be interpreted literally.

Precedence of 2 is higher than 1, therefore material with precedence 2 will "displace" material with precedence 1.

ok thank you zsouthboy;
so I'm a little confused with precedence (or the fault is of my bad english

); did you see my render of "pinocchio"? well if the precedence of my water is 10 and I decide to put a bottle of glass underwater, wich precedence should I assign to the glass?

Glass needs to be 11 in that case.

Make sure you model the thickness (but I think you understand that already)

EDIT: And your english is fine - I think you're having a tougher time understanding us than we are of you.
