This is a Rendering which i did for one of my Customers today! It was made with 1.13 standalone and PMC Kernel! The Customer was very satisfied and i got the order of the Rings! Production will start on monday!

The complete Rendertime for 3048 x X was 42 Minutes, until the picture was quite clean. HDR was used for lightning. Little postproduction with Lightroom was made.

What do you guys think of it? As allways i am happy of some feedback and some constructive critics!

Have a nice Weekend - Chris!

Thanks for your feedback. What would you suggest to make it less clean? Add a dirt texture?

Chris!

I like it!
The marble floor really works, nice subtle reflection.
The bloom works nicely too.
I think true, less "clean" and "perfect" would be more realistic, but I've found that clients don't actually want that. I mean, any real photos like this would be heavily photoshoped to remove all those imperfections.

I recently bought an engagement ring online and had them send me non photoshoped photos of it on someones finger and told them I would know the difference.

Anyway, point is, for super photo realism, you want imperfections, but for product renderings like this, you don't.

Chris!
maybe some tiny noise in the roughness or bump is enough or you could use the dirt node in a mix material for driving two different versions of the metal with different roughness settings :roll:

Cool. Thanks for all your feedback. I will try to implement them in my next experiments! 3 Titans will arrive soon, then experimenting will begin :-)

Any other suggestions i can try to get more realistic results with a good looking too?

Kind regards Chris!
