Description
This is to test effect of light, reflection, refraction on glass material. I'm also interested to do pictures looking realistic.
Any comments or criticisms are welcomed.
All objects done in spatch (high number of polygons for the glasses and the bottle). Materials are default from Vue d'Esprit, except they are changed with soft shadows. The table cloth material comes from Lemog's site . http://perso.club-internet.fr/lemog/lemog_textures/acc_textures01.html
All the lights are soften.

Wow - this is a photo! It is one the most realistic vue pictures I have ever seen! Great, great, great - please don't change anything more! And send it to e-onsoftware when this picture will not become piture of the day they don't know their own program!!!
Geeez you put us to shame, this is amazing work...great job.....and I agree send this to e-on for picture of the day....you should have this run maybe three days, for picture of the day...wonderful job.
I agree with the above, Yves, this is exceptional work. Your glasses look extremely real, and the bottle looks great too!
Looks great to me , the only comment Eon can make is "Wine in a nonfoot glas"? (JK) at least they are French... good job Myske
This is the most photorealistic work I have seen so far in Vue. Congratulations. You say that all lights are soften: do you mean that you have more than one light casting shadows? i wouldn't say so by looking at the result! I would swore that there is just one light that is casting shadows and that the others are fill lights. Also, I am amazed at how perfectly controlled and very limited and realistic are the lights reflections in the glass materials: whatever light setting you made, it must have taken ages for you to arrange so perfectly!
:) This is the best VUE render I've ever seen, Yves ! It should be e-on picture of the YEAR !!! Great job. It's nice to see some hard work in this gallery...(and I know that you've been working on this image for a long time.)
Incroyable !!! (incredible, for no-frenchies ! :-D) 'Cause I am a perfectionist, the only thing that can be updated is to lower the level of wine in the bottle. Yes, it is a little thing, but I don't like perfection ! ;-) Oustanding job !
Great image. Very photorealistic. Every thing is just perfect:-)
Well done I usually don't like vue compared to Bryce but this is very good!
This is one of the mose photo realistic render I have ever seen, and done with Vue! Excellent, most excellent!
I agree u have made a really good job on this...excellent
Fantastic glass! Good work!
Very realistic,
Many thanks for all this (too) kind comments. Maybe the image should be improved (see the printing on the bottle). It's true I had lot of problems with that picture (I have Vue 2, every time I quit the program, I have to load again the wine object inside the glass , rescale it, place it,..). I had also lot of problems with uvmappper to do the (not so good) paper print on the bottle. Whan I say soft light I mean I have one spot light with soften button at the maximum. An other spot light is placed on the scene, but it does not enlight directly the objects we see. This additional spot hits a semi-sphere object which surround the scene. An image is mapped on this semi-sphere object to simulate a "realistic" atmosphere. For the glass material, I use "turn reflective with angle = 28%". I forget to mention that I used "ultra" render, but rendering time was only 5 hours. Again thanks for comments Yves
wow. this completely blew me away. it is so close to photorealism!!!
Wonderfull !! :) Vue 2, really ?? I will have to restart all my "Vue studies" from scratch !! Thanks for this image. So realistic render in Vue !!
Nice output, but there is one but; you didn't do it in Vue d'Esprit and I can tell why. I rather keep that secret for myslef though.
??? What does this blowfish guy mean? However: If this is really rendered in Vue, it IS the most realistic Output I ever saw, if it is not Vue, then let us know, its not a shame to work with other Progs... Anyhow: PHOTO-REALISTIC, COOOL!!!
Hi haegerst, it's completely Vue, no postwork. Again thanks to all. ;=)
It's extremely beautiful! Very realistic!
this wine is fantastic. Great job. beautifulst realise
Etonnant.... je n'avais pas fait attention cette image mais je dois dire que cela me laisse pantois.... BRAVO... (euh puis-je prendre un verre de vin ???)
GREAT! this is one of the most realistic Vue d'Esprit pictures i have ever seen!!
Very Very good!
How do I missed this?? Really B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!! You're great, YL.
