Zeko Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I'm doing a cup for some kind of award for hattrick online game. What do u think? Personally i think i gotta tweak render settings. Also i'm not sure for materials. Some comments or critiques are welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToKill Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I'm likeing the laquered wood base, looks very realistic. Text is to tight to the top of the small plaque though. The football is sweet, i'm not keen on the material applied on the center staff,but the overal shapes good. Personally i would try a full caustics glass effect on the middle section and possibly give the football either a more polished look or try a brushed metal. Nice bit of modeling m8.

pz3 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 looks good, modeling wise. the lighting could be a little less blue, and make the ball chrome, the stand looks like water ... i would to a typical player kicking a ball, but thats just me.

Zeko Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Thx for replies guys. I'm not too happy about middle part aswell so i'll try some other materials. Ball has brushed chrome on it but yeah, looks like i used to much bump on it. I'll fix it and post more soon. Thx again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruin Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Lower the text a tad bit, center it up some more. Otherwise, that's one heck of a soccer trophy. I kinda like the clear aspect to it, but a nice polished chrome would work well too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sup Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 i would to a typical player kicking a ball, but thats just me. ← That means a highpoly character rigged + cloth. Probably a bit too much work for a hobbyist making a trophy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeko Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Sup is correct yeah. And this should be done ASAP cuz it's free project so... Ok i fixed some stuff, toned down that blue, used glass for middle part and fixed that text and material for the ball. What do u think now? I still gotta work on shadows and now caustics i guess cuz i like how that turned out. Comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToKill Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Nice attempt on the glass, a little smoother would look good. I guessing from that render that you've got it inside a cube enviroment judging from the reflections. Might be worth adding something into the eviroment behind and to the sides of the camera to create some realistic reflections. If your feeling brave i have some HDRI scenes i could send you.

Zeko Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Yes u r right BTK, it is a cube enviroment. I didnt want to use HDRI cuz i wanted studio kind of look. And since ball has chrome, it would reflect to much of that HDRI. But if u got some good indoors HDRI, send it and i can try it. I'll also try on less noise for glass. Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sup Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I would definitely go with a HDRI map for the ball (even if you tone it down a lot). Also, the stand needs something done with it's texture. It stretches quite badly. Water looks great to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteKnight77 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I kind of liked the liquid metal look of the stand that you originally had, but the crystal stand looks much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.ronin Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Good stuff!! For some refernce points ... The World Cup The CONCACAF Cup The UEFA Cup The MLS Cup The Bundesliga Cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeko Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Cool stuff ronin! I never saw that MLS cup before. Looks very cool! WK yeah i like glass version too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToKill Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 But if u got some good indoors HDRI Unfortunalty not, just lots of skies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeko Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Same here BTK and some indoors house HDRI's but those wont fit into scene like i want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pz3 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 maybe add some gold trim to the base? The scene definitly needs somthing to reflect. Maybe like a stadium? or somthing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruin Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Silver trim on the base would look better IMO. The glass is neat, but looks too much like ice. That's how it appears to me, I don't know... It looks great... and a stadium background would be awesome. Or maybe just some grass and field lines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeko Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Well thx for input guys. I showed the guy wip renders and he is actually happy with glass version. I removed a bit of noise on glass and he requested that noise back on the ball Anyway here is one render with HDRI. And yeah, i'll probablly add something to the background.

Zeko Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 One more HDRI version. I really like this one. I added a gold ring around base. Is this called a trim Prozac and Ruin? I dunno really cuz my english is weak I'll try it with silver/chrome ring aswell to see what's better. I gotta work on that text too... Comments&critique welcome!

Snake@War Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 That really looks good, Z. Excellent work, there. That's max? Mine's never looked that good! BTW: Yes, that ring is also called trim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeko Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Thx Snake! Yeah thats made in max. One more render, this time with silver trim. I think gold wins but that is just me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruin Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I like that silver trim, but I was thinking more of a slim strip that runs around the top, has a gap to expose the wood and then around the bottom of the base. Let me demonstrate as poorly as possible... ------------ <-Upper Woodlip ======= <-Gold / Silver Trime ------------ ------------ }- Wood and Plaque ------------ ======= <-Gold / Silver Trim Does that make any sense?

Zeko Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Aha yeah i think i get it Ruin. I'll try that aswell. Thx Edit: new concept. What do u think? Glass or this one? Also i added some gold to the ball. Render is not high quality but u can get the picture... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake@War Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 The new one... Awesome... Very nice, Z! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.ronin Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 That new concept r0xxors! I might snaz it up with more DNA helix ... maybe so much so that it becomes a vase of wire or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
