Description

An extreme close up - just experimenting with blurry reflections in place of specular on the skin, I like the effect but at the expense of longer render times - isn't it always!! More info on the following thread: http://forum.daz3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=154632&highlight=blurry+reflections Peace and happiness at this time of year to you all. Thanks for looking - Phil

I'm stealing that thread. I might steal your magical Carrara powers too - don't worry, I'll give them back one day. ;P

Very kool and highly realistic closeup! Not sure if I prefer blur-refl over spec for highlights - mixed results on my tests and paid a penalty on render time! Great work though.

Superb render. Seen some game artists blend their basic textures with a blurred version of the same bitmap, always assumed this was create softer highlights (maybe I misunderstood the reason).
