Stupid me. I had a brain fart. I meant to say mag wheel. Of course alloy looks like that. Sorry. Thanks for the correction.

Wheels like that are hard to get realistic in Poser because there's no good way to do good blurred reflections. There is a way to do blurred reflections, but they're not good. Well, I suppose you can increase render settings until the earth orbits the sun before your render is finished, but I'm not up for that.

But we can approximate something decent just by using a lot of broad specular, I suppose.

TGX will come up with it if he hasn't already. I'm building leather right now.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
