Jewelry lesson (experimenting with yafray integration).

It’s still rough, and the render isn’t the best (the noise is not PP):

C&C’s are welcome and so are tips and questions.

Wow. Fantastic. Looks very realistic. Very good lighting. Cool material. I think the time is coming where I also will install yafray on my computer. Right now it doesn’t work, because my computer is so old and my g+±Compiler doesn’t eat the yafray-code. But great result! :slight_smile:

Cute,

are you sure you used the correct IORs? The ‘colored shadows’ looks weird like if the IOR were very close to 1

This is not caustic - unfourtantly I didn’t masterd caustic yet :frowning: - the colored shadows are mostly a reflection of the jewel on the plane.

Almost photographic in quality. Very nice design and color selection too, @ner :slight_smile: My Yafray attempts have mostly failed. It takes a lot getting used to I guess. I wonder how Blender’s built in ray tracer would render this.
