This is one of the lanterns of my asian temple "Uzume-jinja".
Whilst I was working on it's textures and shading, I was in local mode and I found it really nice just on it's own like that.
So Voila ! A nice little render of it. :)
Please tell me what you think of it.
Do you like that noisy-texture on the paper ?
I'm not quite satisfied with it but don't know how to improve it. :/
Well thanks a lot but now that you've mentioned it, it does kind of bother me a bit (guess I'm also more fond of good old days candle lighting).
I'll be trying to fix it. ;)
Thanks again. :)
Not disturbing. It looks good hanging from the roof at a distance and it is just an accent asset. The close up feels modern and electric. I guess I am just nostalgic for the good old days. I am confident it will look great no matter which direction you take it. ;)
Good thought... Is it disturbing to see such a strong intensity light ?
Well done Mr. Perera. As you say sometimes less is better. I like the serendipitous noise texture here. Wouldn't a traditional lantern be lit by a low wattage candle? Just a thought. ;)
