thanks bloox64, that’s awesome. I just struggled with shadows on one of my other little projects:

How to fake real world materials and make a 3D flying logo

now, let’s add al kind of details to the model. Like a brick wall behind it, a lot of cables, metal pipes for the cables and to hang it on that that wall. Fire red casing is a must. Some texture painting to add that peeling paint effect. Scratches and may be a bit later a lot of screws everywhere. [image]

I’ve downloaded that add-on, will try it later.
Thanks a lot for the tip!

Now, an interesting highlights glitch in Eevee.
I played with it for one of my other Eevee vs Cycles post and this is what i figured out. White nasty highlights in Eevee depend a lot on what kind of environment texture you use. My guess is the higher the texture’s contrast, the nastier. Like large very dark areas and large very light areas. Check out the screenshots below and pay attention to the environment being used (everything else stays the same):
