Lantern image

22 Jan 2017

In a change from my last two weeks I’ve finally got something other than an article to post.

I had the idea of doing a quick scene with a lantern in it and this is what I came up with.

Modeled and rendered using Blender. Rendering took 55 minutes on a GeForce 970 at 8100 samples.

The main objects didn’t need that many samples, but the post needed them to clean up the fireflies enough.

The environment map is from HDRI Haven, which have lots of great images taken with a huge exposure range. They do free small versions, but the bigger (up to 16K pixels wide), aren’t expensive.
