I would not say that :)

This is using a two-pass displacement method on a low-poly sphere, all done in Maya, until the exporter supports displacement. I would then do the second pass in Indigo, hopefully.

First pass for shaping the low-po object (no or a few subdivisions), the second pass for details. Displacement is driven by procedural textures.

I'm glad you like it !

Hey,
The sun topic in Sketchup forum reminded me, that I've made some sun tests too lately. What's amazing is, that this kind of image only took 2-3 minutes to render in 900x600 resolution. Now that's pretty fast. :wink:

y-yup it is ! Now I'm dreaming about a "Ressources" sub-forum where you could share your diffraction maps, own models and textures, home-made IES and camera data, aperture maps and other stuff not found elsewhere...

that is so much as to say that i cant use them :P
Lets just say that all applications booleans are useless, it's just a matter of how well each application hides the mess ;)

But yes your comment is exactly why I began using a manual poly stitching method of modelling and I have to say "thank you" to Blender for having bad booleans (with not very well hidden mess) because the power, experience, and confidence I have gained from learning to model the way I do now is brilliant :)

Holy crap, those sun pics look amazing.. Did you model the water by hand?

Looks like a procedural displacement to me. What I'd like to know is the water material settings. ^^

Thanks guys ! :)

@SATtva_
The water material is just a regular Phong with diffuse = black, IOR = 300 and exponent = 800000

@Pibuz
I made a quick how-to image for you.
