Just slowly building my first scene in Blender, had the problems with bright spots that someone else had (see first pic) changed shader on skin from 'Wardlso' to 'Phong' (bottom pic) and it looks much nicer IMO.
However, does anyone knoe how to scale textures on an object? That background is a cube with a brick wall textue on it, at the moment each brick is 12 foot long! Tried everything I can see that may change it, help please!!
I know everything else still needs work too, still experimenting...
1. Yes "Wardlso" is completely wrong for a car material. (I use "Minnaert" and phong" because it gives me prittey nice results[attatchment 3 shows with "phong" and attetchment 2 with "Wardlso"])
2. I don´t realy know what you mean with "scale textures on an object". I gues your texture is one brick stone or whatever and streched all over the wall. In that case you have to play with the "Xrepeat" settings (attatchment 1)
Hey, cheers, just got back from pub, left this rendering...increased the 'hardness' of Phong highlights:
Opposite problem with the bricks tho...I have an image of a whole brick wall but I need to be able to scale it down so it looks like a wall behind the car
well.... actually except toon and wardlso there isnt any real difference (in the attatchment i tryed every option and well with some material tweaking all except toon and wardlso would look the same lol)
I'm not really sure that dark scenes like that with very little highlights work too well. Especially in the second render viewer's eyes are drawn to backround because it's much more pronounced while car is out of focus and blurry.
Edit: Choisen color is also problematic, brighter and more saturated color would make car much more visible while dark color depends on reflections.
Hmm.... it looks like your whole scene depends on a single lightsource which doesn't seem to be enough unless you crack it up way too high where hotspots become oversatured?
Yeah. Only have Vray sun on that simple scene.The Vray sun only works good with low light.... idk why.. I will put others lights in the front of the car. I need test it first.
