Why it's not realistic?

Oh my… I didn’t even expect so many detailed answers on my “simple” (as I thought) question!) Thank you very much, you are the best! :slight_smile:

Androol, yes, I need to use this toaster in an adds on in a supermarcket :slight_smile: Creating a “used” realistic object is much harder for me… So, for now it’s not the goal for me :frowning: But I’m learning all this stuff and hope that someday…)

sundialsvc4, thank you, thank you, thank you :slight_smile: as for me this renders is not beautiful at all… I don’t now why, but it’s definetely not “pretty darned good” as for me… You also can take a look on the other renders of it here: https://www.behance.net/gallery/21707759/Toaster-)
By the way - so many new words for me, I shocked, I didn’t use Google Translate for a long time :slight_smile:

So, here is the questions:

  1. Do you suggest me to use studio light or not?
  2. Blender Render engine is better than Cycles for this type of shoots? :slight_smile: I can’t work in blender render, it’s old and unclear for me, because I’ve never used it in my practice :frowning:
  3. And, if you could, what is about these “plates”? I don’t get it at all… Maybe there is some article about this method? What I have for now is a “base plate”, right?
