Hi Sharlybg, Thank you for this tutorial. The result look really great!
I was looking for Lux Render tutorials - this would be a good reference.

By the way, how does new Lux Render compare to Cycles in terms to render time?

very happy you like it ! hope you will appreciate next one about SSS and volume. About speed i can said that it really depend on your final goal, the nature of your scene and the realism level. I works on cycles at my job 8hours / day 5 days/weeks. and i prefer lux for the extra realism.I think lux have a better
speed/realism ratio than cycles. But cycles is more flexible and finished and it can be very fast on certain scenario.But all this are only my humble opinion. I will cover defference between them later …
But there is a good thread about it here :

Lux version

cycles version

yafaray version
