Hi all,

here's a little project I just completed - two Hifi speakers.
Background ist from a bigger project I'm actually working on, so work on this one is limited to the speakers.
5 hours of modelling and texturing / testing in Cinema 4D all in all.
6 hours of rendering on my G5 veteran :-)
Little bit of post/tweaking in PS of course.

Cheers

mmmh. looks like you could lower the burn value a bit to avoid the blown-out area on the small top speaker.

another lighting setup might help as well - but I'm not sure how this would integrate in your scene...

I'd say too much post work. Chromatic aberration shouldn't be that obvious.

Thank you very much for the critiques, I've tried to update the pic according to these points.

Looking really good.
I'd make the gaps in the speaker mesh much wider though, so you can actually see the grid of the weaving. I don't feel like I'm looking through fabric, I feel like I'm looking through tinted black glass.
