Strawberry Illustration

Recently quoted for a job similar to this but the client decided to go the photographic route. I've decided to have a go anyway in my spare time. Generally the idea is fruit splashing in flavoured milk.

Cool, people often turn to realflow or nParticles for this sort of thing, but it looks like you're using hand-crafted geo? Which sounds like a great exercise. Make sure some of the splashes have bumps on the end like your reference.

sss liquid

I've exported the models as hires mesh from zbrush and then used a soften edge command (normals). I'd rather do that than use displacements if my computer can handle it.
Trying different setups to get the liquid looking right. The material is a misss_fast_simple_maya.

Looks not too bad, still the color is not 100% yet. But the skin shader works nice already. Dont forget to add the seeds ;-)
