Description

This is basically an indirect lighting test. The image is based on a photo I saw and I thought I'd try to see if I could copy the lighting. Only 2 lights are used. The main side spotlight and some weak HDRI light to lighten the shadows. In order to better see what the lights are doing the model only uses a single light gray shader (aside from the glass).

Wonderful setting. Great job. I'm spending many hours working with lighting and shade. I'm starting to think, less is more. Again, great job. gib

The lighting really makes this image look real. The pose and simplicity of scene work well. I found myself thinking, "here's a hot chick who just finished exercising to find that she got a message from someone she would rather avoid..." Then I remembered this is not real!

Pretty impressive result. Good job making it look quite natural. Makes me want to test carrara again :P

Very cool. Yesterday I tried to get the noise out of shadow areas in a render. Takes forever to do it really topnotch. Looking at this render I realise in a lot of cases it actually looks like photo grain or something.
