Water drops

[Harrad]

Do you mean like the little drops of water on the out side of a can when its cold? (see pic) for that just make little spheres that intersect the can and give them the shader(material) like in the inset.
Material-
blue colour
10% opac
falloff mask in reflec
raytrace with bitmap background in sub menu in mask.

There is no pic? (post again)

Material-
Theres not much to tell...What do you want to know?

I take it your using max seeing as your in the Max forum.

1.Take the opacity rite down to 10%.

2.And but a light blue in the diffuse slot.

3.Then in the relection slot. Put a mask.

4.In the mask roll out, you have 2 options the texture and the mask.

-in the mask part put a parrelle or fresnel fall off map.

-then in the texture slot put a raytrace material in it.

-Under the raytrace slot for background put an image map
(something like a pannorama of a sky and table).

5.Also wack the spec rite up and high gloss to get a very small highlight.

Any better?
