Wedding Dress Con't

I am continuing to work on the wedding dress, and due to some happy accidents, I've discovered how to create lace. I worked on it through color, bump, spec to no avail. Finally I removed all color and just used Bump, which gave the render the subtle details lace creates.

The dress isn't done yet! I still need to make the specularity more interesting.



I added strong spec on the flowery parts of dress, to bring them out more, and make the dress more interesting.

In this render I was using phong as spec to try to get the 90* effect it has. Didn't work quite as well. I need to continue working on it.



I added the spec to the glow, and got some crazy results. This effect doesn't work on my project, but it is an interesting 'angelic' look. Maybe for something else.

That's it so far! Next more spec and after that, the hair!
