Here is mark 2 of the picture I have been playing with.
Added some caustics, focal blur and an area light.
Comments please.

To me, brilliant!
An improvement on the last one, although I liked that too.
If I have any criticism at all, I think it's that the end-cap on the pen
nearest us should be a little thicker?

Thanks for your comments.
I totally agree with you, I will fix it for the final version :)

looks much better than the last one - suprising how much difference a few
tweaks can make - shouldnt the tip be ink coloured tho?

You are of course right. Another thing to be fixed for the final.
Thank you

Curious choice of subject matter, but a very good image. About the only thing
missing is the reflection of the photographer! Just too add that extra touch of
realism ;)

LOL, I like the idea of the photographer.
I could do with a poser model holding a camera.

Why isn't there a tiny cylindrical hole about two thirds of the way
along?

Simple answer, the actual pens I used for reference did not have them.

I was going to post something about the holes being conical, not
cylindrical, but, all the biros I have here are without hole...

Are you using post processing focal blur or the built in (slow) focal blur?

Im using the good old slow focal blur.
This image took 21 hours to render, although I was using a rather
large (8x8) area light.

Since there also isn't a hole in the base plug (such as what some recent
pens use) I'd guess that the reference pens don't work too well. As the
ink gets used up, the air pressure inside the pen decreases and resists
the flow of more ink.

Actually after closer examination the pens have 2 little air holes
in the nib (just where it joins to the main case).
I will have to add this.
Thx for pointing it out.

Good work. I'd suggest some ink on the nibs and using radiosity to get rid of
the dark shadows.

Thank you
I did some test renders with radiosity but got some strange effects around
the steps in the nib of the pen. It appeared as if there was a light source
inside and it was escaping at the joins. Also the render times for this
image
are quite high already if I did fix the radiosity problems I think it would
take about a month to render :)
