This type of light, combined with the monochromatic choice allowed me to give the scene intensity and character. In the scene, I just put a rectangular light (Figure D) by varying its directionality to 0.8, as can be seen in Figure D1. You can see the result in the following figures (Figure C – Figure C1). I came to this result after a series of tests and evaluations. Generally, the value of the Scale is 1, but bringing it to 1.6 allowed me, in this case, a greater passage of light through the object. I left the default values, except the one from the Scale. In O verall Color, Diffuse Color and Scatter Color I put the grape texture (Figure B). In Figure A1 we can see the values used to obtain it. To create the SSS material, click in the materials window, as shown in Figure A. In my rendering “ Grapes” I used V-Rray for Rhino (3.4) and I created SSS material to better enhance the main focus of the image, a Caravaggio-style bunch of grapes.Ī translucent material, called SSS Material ( Sub Surface Scattering, explained in lesson N° 29 of Learnvray Course for Rhino) proved to be a very simple and useful tool to simulate the typical translucency of grapes. A bit like art, in which simple inanimate objects, thanks to the wise use of lighting, shadow and color, become a classic pictorial representation – a ‘still life’.

For my scene I decided not to dwell on a global environment, a room or an exterior but on a single object.
