If you can carefully setup geo in Maya, a plane can become a million polygons of photo real solar panels with microscopic details at render time. Similarly spiders webs can have microscopic hairs on the webs generated with geo shaders, and snow can have crystal structures smaller than 1 pixel that create a photo-real snow look. That's the real power of the software." Below is an image showing how very low polygon Maya geometry, can become very high polygon and accurate displaced geometry with correct indirect lighting as if it were modeled in Zbrush. Lollipop Shader Store offers a lot of plug in packages for Renderman 19 oooh wow, Renderman 19 IPR has real time preview SSS! http://www.cgchannel.com/2011/08/lollipopshaders-releases-new-free-renderman-shaders/ Edited May 20, 2015 by L'Ancien Regime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
