Stills: SSS Test

[Waters]

Hey, can you give some more information about your shader? Did you use a 3dsmax plugin render to get thiws effect, or is this a shader you wrote for mentalray/maya/renderman? If the second is true, then could you tell us what method you used to get the effect?

[Serial Killer]

Sorry but this is a wax shader wich comes with Brazil and I was testing it before using it to make skin shaders.
But if you still interested in it I can tell you how it was done.

[Vazza]

Those Brazil Shaders are very special indeed and you've put the wax shader to great use here, especially in the 4-5 hour render; it looks like a big box of Brains, Nice!

:cool:

mmmm! sss /me drools uncontrollably :drool: :d~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Serial Killer]

Thanks :beer: any more coments, do ypu can apreciate the translucency or just looks like another simple shader

[Wigaru Wiyamoto]

Hah, fun images. The red balls remind me of Boston Baked Beans. :)

[LowEndFrequency]

I can see your photons, inscrease the photon count, or radius.

[Serial Killer]

This wasn't render with photons, if talking about the tree it got a cellular map in the translucency map

[vanilla shotgun]

Cool shader! I really like the second image of the blob thing. Looks very realistic. :buttrock: :buttrock:

[Renzsu]

yeah the translucency really adds something here, looks like a candy or a strawberry ;) Only the last image the translucency is hard to notice.. don't know whether that's good or not, but it looks like it isn't there..

[antonio_ns]

Just curious what your settings are in Brazil.

[Serial Killer]

Yes a like the "strawberry" image too :scream: it looks like a soft candy I would really like to give it bite :rolleyes: the last image doesn't look so translucence cuz are a lot of them and the ray lights it's absorbed I think but it acts like real life.

The setings well.. it's just a simple wax shader I tryed everithing lots of samples and nothing good happens until I turn the two sided on :hmm:, like in the example files that comes with brazil, if you want I can post the file and a little explanation of it but you will need Max 5 and Brazil v.1 I gess also can do something with Brazil basic material.

Let me know cheers:bounce:

[BurrowingDuck]

just one comment: all the meat balls in the last picture are exactly the same. see if you can make a few variations when the texture is rotated around.

[Serial Killer]

meat balls :drool: humm..
as I said before this was a quick test of translucency and a very fast arrange of spheres so I didn't rotate'em maybe later with more time
