Using Advanced Refractive Techniques in V-Ray for Creating a Diamond Material

By May 18, 2013No Comments

The EVERMOTION team care of Kuba Dabrowski shows how to use some more advanced V-Ray refractive functions that can handle the complex light refractions, realistically creating a diamond material.

in this tutorial I talk about advanced material options in Vray that are helpful in creating realistic results

Managing the reflections is only one component to create a believable diamond material, refractive components come into play with light dispersion effects that will provide the “chromatic aberration” look for the V-Ray render.

Kuba also continues with the image in After Effects, adding some post effects such as bloom, some color corrections, and snazzy highlights.
