Fine tune the rendering of a pill bottle

Christopher Tyler Jan, 29th 2016 0 Comments
This tutorial is a follow-up to the Inverse Falloff Law lighting tutorial. It shows how to make a few adjustments to the pill container scene in order to fine-tune and improve the rendering. This includes using the inverse square falloff law to adjust the darkness of the background, adjusting the diffuse channel of several materials, and also applying a reflective shader to a localized region of the ground object.

Creating a power cord

Christopher Tyler Jan, 6th 2016 0 Comments
This modeling tutorial deals with creating a path extrude object that is similar to a typical power cord. It shows a technique of deriving a path that has imperfections which look like a semi-rigid cord with irregularities. The technique uses a path extrude object, the decimation tool and a bit of polygon editing.
