Title: Eternity Moment
Name: Mike Lynch
Country: USA
Software: Lightwave 3D, Photoshop

Another of my recent product renders. This one proved to be a bit more difficult than anticipated... It's surprisingly difficult to make clear glass look "clean" without it washing out completely under reflections and specularity.

Notes:
4 spot lights (I got rid of my area lights for this one... huge render times... not using FPrime yet)
2 HDRIs (1 Lightprobe and 1 Textured Environment)
4 glow panels for specular highlights
Render time: 1 hour 16 minutes (at 2400x3000)
Minor post work to color correct

good job :)

Silverwing - Thanks, man. I appreciate that. It's good to know I hit my mark on all counts. :D

elnady - I had originally presented this with a darker background, but the higher-ups wanted it white.

SENIMAE - Thanks. :scream:

Thanks, Crayox. :) And you make a very good point... but it's the general standard for the company I work for to not see any air in product shots. ...So the products need to look as if they are filled completely.

Nice image! One suggestion though, I think you shouldn't have filled the bottles to the top but leave some air in them so you can see the parfume line better.
