Looks good - how about maybe playing with the peas a bit? At the moment they
look just a bit too shiny and "perfect" to be peas. No idea how you might
do it, but make one or two a bit flatter, with creases in them or such.
Know what I mean? I've never eaten peas that look that perfect... maybe
less shine on them as well?

All in all a good scene, there's lots of potential here to make something
really nice! The chips are isosurfs?

Wow, hey Steve, first I've seen of this. You've rendered up a nice plate of 
food there. I love F&C's, too! Don't like ketchup on or even near my fish 
though.

There's a photo effect appearance to the food, to my eyes. Highspeed color 
film, maybe, granularity. Makes for an interesting look. And I could almost 
swear I see a little steam in the center. My LCD display isn't the best.

There are 2 main things that stand out to me as needing work, the glass
material and the table and wall texture or geometry.

the food is impressively modelled, though as I look closer the lemon peel
has black spots on it. maybe the normal is too deep? or maybe it just needs
a little radiosity with normals on to smooth it out.

keep it comming

The peas as well as the fried fish still look pretty much like 
plastic... I would like to make the peas less shiny and the fish should 
have a more orange hue. Also the chips (we here in Continental Europe 
call them "pommes frites") currently look like fresh from cold storage - 
they should be of a warm yellow, even a slightly brownish orange along 
the edges!

See you in Khyberspace!

     Thanks Bob. Yes, I'm thinking of moving the ketchup to the far-side of 
the peas...  ;o)

There 'are' a few normals in that image. Maybe that's it?

   Your LCD is fine, you do see steam in the form of 2 very thin spirals 
using  T_Grnt19a  scale 50 with an ambient of 1. Maybe I should add more 
spirals for the steam effect?

  Well, from memory, ordinary garden peas look the same as in my image, 
tending to be a younger pea, they have a younger skin...

    Yes, I see where you are coming from with this. I'll give it a go.

    Thanks! :o)

    No, the chips are Wings models.

    There are two main things to be sorted out:

     The glass and the wall geometry...  ;)

   That will probably work, but Rad isn't my strong point...   :o/
