Hi all,

I created my own coffeecup...
Can you give me some critics? Or some help on the coffee? I don't know if the color is right (I drink my sugar with coffee and cream).

I used 2 omni's, one with area-shadows and one for ambient light.

greetz,

Looks good to me.. don't drink coffee thou... so I can't tell much about the color.. however I think it is a bit to much "shine" to it.
bouth the cup and the cafe.. maybe u should try lowering the reflection just a bit.. but then again.. I don't drink coffee, so I can't tell for sure..

Keep it up never the less..

Hey, nice. Maybe some foam makes it more tasty?

k I used less reflection for the coffee.
I think this is better, but im still not pleased. I don't know, maybe this looks to watery if you know what I mean.

Any suggestions?

I got my coffee here right next to me. I drink quite a lot of coffee so I have more milk so yours is darker. But the tint doesn't quite seem right either. Maybe it's slightly too much red in it? Or maybe a tad too saturated.
You also forgot to model the fluid bending at the edges where it touches the cup. That one is really important to catch highlights. If your software can do it, you should also add some subsurface scattering there.
The first render had better lighting than the last.

yeah I think the tint is not right.. so here an update.

I know what you mean with the edges. But I looked at my coffee and discovered the edges going down instead of up like the edges of water. Maybe it's because there are a lot of tiny bubbles at the edge of coffee...

Im trying to fix it.. thnx!
