Description
Hello everyone and thanks for looking...
This picture is kind of an experiment... The Light Saber props are a freebie from 'pgmeri' (or 3-d-c, as he goes by on ShareCG), and I'm playing around in the material room with the ambient settings. I increased the setting to about 50 to give the sabers a glow and turn them into sort of a point light. Unfortunately, while the blue one stays kind of blue, the red one turns yellow. I'm not sure why that is, and if any one knows, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks folks, and I hope you like it.

Good light and scene. Well done.

Strange. I've no idea why the bloke's saber looks yellow but it's interesting that the light being cast by it is still red. I'd ask in the forum. I'm sure one of the gurus will be able to explain it. :)

I can't think of a logical reason why it should change colors like that, and to yellow no less. Either way nice glow effects.

That prop doesn't work in DS so I curious how it looked when finished. I've had to do my sabers in Gimp. (If you want to see what the Gimp method looks like, look here: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=2149525&user_id=654713&np&np )

For some reasons the expressions amuse me--it's a good render even as an experiment!

Odd thing about Light Saber's, you really have to be a Jedi Master to understand all their secrets and the Zen of Poser...LOL ! Neat effects and sorry I can't help with this one ! Well done & ~Cheers~

Nice work. Not sure why the sabers are misbehaving. The good news is they are far enough along that a good dosing in post can make them very glowable. Well done.

Baddies get red ones. Not seen any yellow ones before.

I can't help you on it, Tom, I'm strictly a DS user... and it has it's own problems with "glows", especially those made for Poser oddly enough... lol. Guy doesn't look evil enough to have a red one anyway. Not that I know what the colors go to as far as Masters and their weapons... :D
RoguePilot
Nice experiment. On the red lightsaber, my guess is you have a green colour on the translucency in addition to the red on the ambient, this would tend to push the colour towards a dirty yellow. I think in Poser you have to switch to the advanced tab in the material room to see this.
delaorden_ojeda
great scene and lighting , fantastic atmosfere !

Amazing scene with a great lighting !!!

Great characters - but you may need to add a postwork glow to really get the blades looking the business?!
Faery_Light
nice work.
adorety
Nice scene and lighting, overall. That is odd that it would change it to another primary color but cast red light. Are there gel settings. Vue lights seem so much easier, still practicing in Poser.

Ahhhh Lonestar...I see your swartz is as big as mine...Sorry..every time I see a light sabre I think of Spaceballs ..Sorry no idea why they would change like that Tom..Cool Scene Though regardless..(smile)
