[Lacrevette]

wow, quite impressive looking. It's like a photo.
Nice angle and DOF.

Could we see a wire and more info about technic ?

[jimidv]

OK ,good lights and very realistic peace,congratulations

[Destrega]

Very impressive work!! 5 stars

[Gustaw]

Very nice, simple and effective!

[Ank4]

That's really impressive! I would have thought it was a photo if I didn't know it was CG. Congrats!

[Sercox]

Wow, really amazing piece of work. Greeeat

[Artist-Lounge]

Perfect photo realistic render .. 5* :thumbsup:

[milannnnnnnn]

really nice

[hgDesign]

Wow, very real and detailed work. Can I see the wire? How long did you work on it?

[fluvirus]

perfect work... 5(*)

[KeyCZ]

Thank you all for your comments, I am really glad you like it ;)

Lacrevette, gnassbasti: here is clay and wire render:
http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/8421/clayka4.th.jpg (http://img66.imageshack.us/my.php?image=clayka4.jpg)http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/3334/wiresc2.th.jpg (http://img66.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wiresc2.jpg)
I am sorry for the quality, I used low GI settings to speed up the rendering. If you want I can provide you higher quality pictures.

As you can see, the geometry is quite simple. The key element is the HDRI map for both reflections and illumination. I downloaded one from internet, then tweaked it to suit my needs.
The irregularities in box are made with simple noise modifier in 3dsMAX, the details on "pill sheet" (I am not sure if I am using the right term...;)) were created by displace map.

I started this work about 3 months ago, but I was really working on it only for about 2 weeks.

[hayriyepinar]

look's very realistic. congratulate.

[jankvollmer]

is that a photo? :-)
5* congrats!

[ilusiondigital]

Yes, very great render. Cool materials with a impressive lighting, can you explain more about your workflow?

Regards

[shadowcrew]

aweeesomeeeee man


killing render...

[hanimation13]

nice work man , so realistic

[viz]

Perfect render.. Don't use drugs! ;)

[vigorroeffects]

This is perfect work.

so " simple" and so good:applause:

[Ballo]

Simple, but very photorealistic. Good work!

[plakkert]

Really really photorealistic, excellent work!

[KeyCZ]

again, thank you all for your replies. It encourages me greatly in my next work.

Yes, very great render. Cool materials with a impressive lighting, can you explain more about your workflow?

Regards
I am sorry, but can you be more specific, what exactly would you like to know? I dont know what to describe, becouse this scene is really simple and in my opinion there were no tricky parts. I spent most time selecting the right HDRI map. The only interesting information I can think of is that I used Linear Workflow and I strongly reccomend using it in every picture. You can find informations about it at the official Chaos group forum.

[Milivoj-Lemonade3D]

great stuff! Absolutely fotoreal! 5* from me.

[niva]

I also gave you 5 stars but not so much for the image which indeed does look photoreal but for the message it contains. Great job man!

[radoxist]

Hehe nice "afternoon" render, but AWARD? I thought that it was a HONOR to get award earlier days. Mastery in sense of art and technical skills. But nowdays, it seems that you can get an award for a really avarage picture.....I drags the importance down. Its not a hornor anymore.

I think I will be a bad guy for this, but it just my opinion.........

[hgDesign]

Jo dude, We are talking about art here. And art is not judged in how simple or how complicated a picture is, or how long it took to create it. It is judged in wether it creates emotions and feelings to the viewer. Your work obvoiously has done that, and so you have received an award for this. I have read at least one post here that the person gave you 5 Stars for the message and not particularily for the work. So, why not feel honored that you created some feelings with your work to others.

[KeyCZ]

wow. I must say, I was shocked, when I saw that I recieved the award. Such a suprise, thanks ;)

radoxist: believe me or not, but I partially agree with you. My perception of my own work may be distorted (it usually is ;)), but i personally would not give myself award for this ;). In fact, I was quite suprised how much people like it. And after all, everyone have the right to have opinion, so you are not "bad guy" for me ;)

[RorschART]

Prefect realistic render ! :thumbsup:
Congrats
5 stars. :cool:

[Anamorphic]

Wow! Very realistic, the card box is very well modelled, I've tried to model folding card and it always looks far to stiff and CG. This looks spot on, well done:thumbsup:

[Molier]

looks like foto
:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[ktxed]

Great image and title! Just thinking of my upcoming exams gives me some headaches :twisted:
Dof it all the way ;)

[yenvalmar]

yes its a good render but as the poster himself mentioned, its not so hard to make a photoreal render of something so simple with the rendering tools that have been out for a few years now, HDRI maps and so on. but the concept of the piece as given by the title puts the work in a context that elevates it past the image itself. something very rare even in art museums, never mind on CG talk :)

[singhkaran]

wow very nice i love realistic graphics done in 3d with vray and u did out standing job. hats off to you....! great work very very nice.

keep doing great work so that we could see your work offfennnnnnnn....!

2nd time I'm commenting on this thread... I just have to say I can't believe the negative comments about this image getting an award even appearing on this thread but in others across the forums! To the people doing this I have some words: quit being jealous that somebody's work is getting recognized in a good way and put out something worth looking at yourselves. It is an award worthy image and the fact people are complaining means the award is still worth a lot.

My 2 cents, I wish more images with a meaningful message like this one would be created. Peace!

Hi niva,
it's ok, I am not offended by these. Most of the people criticizing my award are my friends, and they have my permission to do so. I know them, and I am sure they are not jealous. I personally wouldnt give myself the award, as I said before...

[arbie64]

Impressive!! DOF was a the right choice.

[Neox3d]

very photo realistic, nice materials

[wingdezigns]

5 stars very nice ... the detail of realism is fantastic!

[GioChrono]

Excellent, impressive work, particularly the shader for the foil and clear plastic.
You must be proud

[Blaschke]

just perfect. great job man!

[Badgerow]

Absolutely stunning. I have a new desktop background now to keep me inspired. I must ask, the geometery looks remarkably simple, is that polygons or sub-D mesh?

[Cheshie]

Great! So true, too! At least here in Orlando.

[techdivine]

cool work.... and great render....
:thumbsup:

be well

[KeyCZ]

again, thank you all for your comments. I am glad you dedicated your time to posting here.

hi,
the geometry is editable poly, with meshsmooth when nessesary (at the objects with round parts). I posted the wire without MS earlier, you can find it on the first page of this thread...

[Ripmork]

fantastic!
100% realism

P.S:
I could use a few of those pills right now (exams are killing me:D)

[KeyCZ]

well, same here, and btw I missed one term for my semester work and almost failed the subject and lost some really sweet money (for me ;)) from scholarship, while working on this picture :-D

[SJM]

Certainly pulled off the photo-realism in this render, Great job!

[DODOCOM]

Certainly pulled off the photo-realism in this render, Great job!Wow! Holy cow! That's great! Have you been working out?

[savat]

Macro with DOF...great coupling, great image!

[DenkoM]

congrats man, nice work... I'm looking forward to see more from you in the future.

[GaeasHerald]

Hi! Great render!

I know it will sound a bit strange, but i´ll say it anyway. As a soon to be pharmaceutical chemist, i can tell you that the sort of tablet you rendered is generally biconvex and has a dimmer specular highlight (cause of the manufacturing process...). That´s the only change i would suggest for a more photorealistic render.

I thought it could be an interesting insight.... sorry for my freakishness :blush:.

anyway, the render is flawless dude!
:)

[KeyCZ]

once again, thanks for all the comments
congrats man, nice work... I'm looking forward to see more from you in the future.
Well, stay tuned... i am posting another work to 3D gallery in few days. And this time, it will be more than just a bunch of cylinders and box with DOF ;)

a na maxconu to poradne zapijeme :)

hi! thanks for this interesting suggestions. The pills are inspired by Paralen, which is Czech brand name for a mild painkiller. Its pills are really flat ;):
http://kotrla.com/pmpro/images/uploads/paralen.jpg
I guess youre right about the specular highlights... there is always something to improve, thanks for pointing out.

[rooked]

Work like this hurts my brain and makes me feel like I need to question everything around me.

I cannot tell that this is not real. It is really well done. Congrats.

I'm blown away.

[mastone]

I really like it, the only thing i would suggest is add a small bump to the pills, but other than that it's very sweet

[msouza]

This is a REAL "Fake or Photo" Tread. Almost no one can say it's 3d or not, but we know it is. Astonish image ! Great level of care on the details, shaders and Anti-alias (Wich is a bad side of Vray imo).
Amazing result !

[harryb]

Really nice -- the message, the lighting, the composition, the DOF. Very well done!

Except for the bar code. . . If you scan it, It'll say it's Pepto Bismal. Really dropped the ball on that one ;-)

[KeyCZ]

lol! That is maybe the best comment I ever saw! ;) Is there any CGChoice Award for best comments? ;)

btw: the bar code is copied from some image I found on google ;)

[OwlxH]

This is one nice work, congrats!

[bigdoggie]

Nice photo :P


Looks great, very realistic! 5*

[Syamasundar]

i was inspired by this work. thanks

[phoenix1001]

[peeayouel]

It looks freaking great, but why are there 6 pills and only 2 open compartments? :)

[KeyCZ]

[daymon-studio]

Very simple, but quite nice work.

[Idealspace888]

[fahadkhan]

You Done A Amazing Job ...

[prophecy313]

wow, completely rediculous! amazing realism, 5 effin stars from me!

[DBKenn]

got any tips for rendering paper mate? You seem mastered it.

[KeyCZ]

its really simple. Just some texture from google and decent glossy reflections.

[ws466]

Nice work ...

[furbit]

This is an interesting thread,

I originally clicked the thumbnail because I thought it was part of a larger image, though the quality of the render supra realistic, I found I enjoyed your thread more,

I understand why some people are so irritated about the award thing, but I think the fact that it sparked some conversations and observations that transcend the image, I think that could merit the award.

[KevinMartin]

Very nice! look like real photo.Good job!!

[jpiette]

That image is made of WIN. What fun it is to relate to that. Ugh, grad school is gonna kill me I swear.

[rezatayebi]

Very impressive render.

[bscott86]

Just some more praise. It seriously does look like a photograph. This is wonderful. I was impressed by your other art as well, but this one takes the cake. It looks so real.

[bscott86]

This is amazing. I was impressed by your other work as well, but this takes the cake.

[VKarlsson]

Amazing render :thumbsup:

[Reezeex]

[GilbertF]

[artinjulio]

[KeyCZ]

[Gilban]

Simply Great.......wow

Hi,
thanks.
What exactly do you mean by word "res"?

[redcobra]

WOW! AMAZING!!

Can you tell me hod did you do the pills?

Im not much of a pro you see...here is my website, you judge me :P

http://mohdsportfolio.weebly.com/

[KeyCZ]

its really nothing special, just some geometry with simple slightly reflexive material... its all about lighting ;)

[NoMss]

The work's awesome,though i think the pills shoul'nt have that shine. The rest is superb!! :)

[JanickoSlniecko]

paradna praca :) viac realne uz to ani nemoze byt

[Points]

I found your image from this website. http://www.thepixelstudios.com/

I saw some images from CGSociety in their website.

I was just wondering if you guys are all working at the same place.

Good work!

Hi,
it's stolen, you guessed that right ;). There are also other stolen images made by some of my friends, and lots of really popular images from CG Talk, in my opinion also stolen ;). I knew about this before, but thanks for the tip anyway ;).

One friend already wrote them to stop stealing artworks, they replied with some funny bulls**t about them being real authors ;)

I think you guys should be together and sue them or something. How can they use art without asking? and they are real author? Man, that is not right at all. You guys spent so much time on these beautiful work and they used it for their benefit.

[KeyCZ]

I think its quite impossible to get justice over internet. We dont have time and nerves for international lawsuit :/

[Timmer]

Impressive work man, really great realism!

GrtZ, Tim

[Drozzi]

Nice work!
