hey! I need some help with this image for the monthly challenge. The floor texture is from animax.it obviously, and the leaf is from turbosquid, placed in the symmetrical lattice, given a .01 depth, and then given the very same texture. bump map created from the same texture, b&w. what else? I don't specifically like it because it seems to be lacking some degree of realism. I'm not sure what. The lighting is from the sun, because whenever I put lights on top of objects that are very thin, I get pink dots all over them (?). Anyway, I would have liked it to be curved, but since I couldn't export the obp anywhere to screw with it, I'm left with this. the original plan was for a yard with a yellowing tree, and the pov of a porch, with that very leaf being blown inside by the wind. all comments and criticisms open. drac
