The Octane Bench competition / I have an IDEA

Hello from Madrid,

It´s been quite a long time ago from my last time posting in these forums (too busy with some projects... which is good, of course ;) )

I have found some spare time to give this competition a try and I´ve begun modeling an idea that came into my mind just after reading about this contest. I would like to create a simple and minimalistic scene that is at the same time as hyper-realistic as possible. The tough part will obviously come when trying to render in only 1 minute, but that´s a good exercise to test the Octane engine.

Please have a look at my first tests and feel free to tell me what do you think about model, textures, illumination and overal mood of the scene. Thank you very much.

Also note that these images are raw renders, made with Path Tracing (maxdepth 7), and have no PS.

Best

Julio

Thank you Ardian_ian,

I think that the first image is rendered in PT 7 up to 1000s/pixel in about 65-75sec.

Hey,

I´m attaching a new preview of the Bulb concept. I´ve added the switch and some new textures, to give the scene a more "old and vintage" look... what do you guys think of it?

Thank you

Hey mates,

I had some time to work on this idea and I´ve totally redesigned the bulb to make it way more "vintage", then put it on a old wood base.
Maybe you could tell me which of both designs you like the most.

The image is rendered in 70-80sec and with PT 7. Hope you like it.

Best

Thomas Edison would be proud :)
It came up very nice - I too think the last image is the most representative ;)

Good luck,
