I posted an image to the gallery. One that has been lurking a while, I think. :) I'm playing with lights.. atmosphere and lightsettings in the "studio". One thing I can't quite figure out is how I make a flame look a bit realistic. I've tried a light surrounding the flame object; volumetric and not. Tried to put the default "flame" texture on the model WITH and WITHOUT light surrounding it... I can't make it look very good, so I ended up cropping the candle light out of the image (see link)... Any secrets out there that you'd want to share with me?? Thanks! Britt :)
