The Grand Art of Messing Around

When someone came onto the newsgroup, and showed this Thanksgiving Dinner table provided in Carrara, he made a note that the jello could look better. Well..yes. So I got to playing and this is the result that came from it.

I said this multiple times before, and I will say it again. Defaults sometimes don't work well. (Except for default lights, they never work well). What I did in this picture was opened up the shader for the Jello to add transluncy, some Subsurface Scatter, and a little more tweaking. It looks a little more fluid now then what the person who said "It needs work".

It should go without saying that sometimes when you are doing 3d art, you need to play. Play a lot! I know, play sounds a little bad, but playing is fun. 3D art should be fun, otherwise we will get bored and why the hell would we do it?
