Below are a series of screen shots taken last week as I worked towards the final rendered image of the Jindu Pavilion. An interesting challenge with this shot was creating realistic ripples in the pool while still maintaining a high level of reflectiveness. This was accomplished with two renderings, one with a glass reflection, the other with a bump-map. I then combined the two renderings in Photoshop.
