Chocolate bar

Hey guys,

currently i'm working on a school project and i need some tips/advice from you.

At the moment i'm not really satisfied with the shot. I'm not really sure about the right image detail/composition and some material settings.

The half cutted chocolate bar needs some further tweaking and the milk material is not what i want. I used a mix material node with a specular and a diffuse material for the milk. The diffuse material emits a little bit of light.

Maybe you guys got some tips for me to get this shot right.

Oh, I like your materials and the overall composition,
but the image suffers from dull lighting...
Try one of the various free (studio) HDRI you can get on the web, you know, something that delivers some dramatic shading and more interesting reflections on that glass.

I suggest these: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=671334

Thanks, for the link. But i'm already using that free hdri's :D

I will check lighting again, because last time i searched for the right hdri there was no glas in the scene. It came afterwards because the scene looked so empty and boring.
