Not much time to tell you about it, 'cause I have some serious resting to
do, but... Well, I spent the last couple of days modelling the little
bottle. It's quite detailed. Based on a real national-brand (Congo) tabasco
sauce bottle. Has photons and all that... too bad it's so small. This took
about 5 hours to render. I hope you like the  floor. Much work still to be
done. More bottles, more food, more background. Good night. Enjoy. :)

It's coming along very nicely! I like the chair, especially the back of it,
but the part you sit on looks a little flat and hard.

I'm not sure where the scene is supposed to take place - on some kind of
balcony?

> I hope you like the  floor.

There seems to be some pattern, but I can't make it out. Maybe make it a bit
stronger.

Look forward to see it!

I think so too. :)

Also not done yet, I forgot to mention that.

Yes.

Hm... Maybe some stronger colors. The normal is about exactly how I want it.

Me too! :)

I really like this, but, y'know what? I'm thinking it would make a really
cool anim having the table cloth sway gently in a breeze, and some audio of
birdsong or waves lapping against a shore.

Get to it!  :-)

You are forgiven, even though you have strayed from the path of cloth
animation to concentrate on the "other-side"... the STILL IMAGE. :-)

The animation-side is beautiful thing in and of itself, but the still-side
can complement most any image. The still is slow. The animation is fast. The
still detailed. The animation low-res. The still is there, yet not the
center of attention. The animation draws the eye to it, and entertains.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is one hell of a movie. Microsoft faked some
XBox shots. And Harvey is the Wonder Hamster. What? You're still reading
this? ;)

Not on *my* computer :-(

Yes.

You're losing me...

I hope mine do

Not seen it (yet)

Don't care.

Nah, you've lost me now.

Of course. I was holding out for you to say something interesting ;-)

BTW.. anim is nearly done. Should be up very soon.
Title is "Thread The Membrane". You intrigued?

This would probably make a good image to render at [IN x SA  aa NE] and make a
print of.  I see a lot of detail that I can't see [sic] at this resolution...

If I may: the part I encircled looks to me a bit too dark - an effect of 
radiosity? It makes an unnatural impression on me.
What a pity of the bottle; I would like to see it from real close! I 
love Tabasco...

Do. The ending sucks, but it's worth it to see the rest.

I suppose I could do something about that by using a shadowless light off a
bit more in -Z. That or I could just turn up the brightness of the one
light. The problem is I lose the normal when it's like that.

I hope you didn't have your hopes set too high. This is what it looks like
from close-up. The "liquid" was at one point made of media and other stuff,
but it rendered too slowly. I figured: If you won't be able to appreciate
the detail in the final image, why put it in? Enjoy. :)

The bottle is missing reflection, isn't it?
Otherwise looks good.

table made with cylindrical warp?

No. It does have it.

No. It's my own special pattern composed of onion and radial.

Really?

I would at least expect it to reflect some of the sky where the rays hit
the bottle with a very low angle.  

For glass variable reflection is usually a very good idea.

very true, but again, if you not going to see it, why waste cpu cycles
rendering it?

Yes: a cute little bottle, however I see nowhere Tabasco written on it. 
Instead it seems to be kind of a Panamanian product? But the outside is 
good :) thanks,
