Maya & Mental ray Caustics render - Water Bottle

#1

Hello pears, new to this forum, old in the field, in fact the last job I applied for, replied with “We hired 2 younger guys…”
Well what can one do, with all that great talent out there, the competition isn’t easy. Anyway, lately I have been focusing on mental Ray for photo real images. I like the results with still images, but horrible artifacts with animation, unless the scene is pretty simple.
I find renderman to be a better solution for all the global, caustic and occlusion solutions, when rendering animation.

This Image was created with Maya and Mental Ray on a Mac - A touch of photoshop, but the focus was on the render caspabilties.

Please let me know what you think, I always could use another opinion.

It also has an animation of particle drops, that is not displayed in the still image.

The label looks too much like metal, otherwise I quess it looks pretty much like a water bottle. :slight_smile: Also… the scene around the object has to fit… for instance inside a fridge.
