Well actually we don't have so bumpy cigarettes being sold here in austria...well...but some of my cigarettes really look that way after i've had them several days in my trousers (where they got lost)....the thing i should really change is the saturation of the filter....scanned in a cigarette, and took some color-values out of the scan....but it's really to orange...looks like I have to do some Photoshop-work ;o))...

Reducing the bump is also a good idea....was just a contest: Me against a friend of mine

Maya vs. Cinema 4D

Who can make faster a photorealistic cigarette...but i guess i've won anyway ;o)))

For the HDRI-fake i have to increase the samples of the Area light...but i'm so unpatient, can't wait 'till pix are finished...and area-lights are somewhat of slooooooow......especially with refracions....
