I have been thinking of 3d art for a while, in terms of wall hangings in particular.
This is a wall panel I downloaded and cleaned up. Once I had a big enough panel I imported a simple picture to map ont the topographic face. Reasonable result there but the elevation change is over about an inch and seems not that well defined, I think like the base of a skirting board it may need to be exaggerated The equivalent of raising the skirting board a quarter of an inch for example, to increase contrast for the shadow to define the geometry.
As an aside, any Fleetwood Mac fans here? No? Shocking. They released a new album last year and I am listening now. As good as ever, imho of course.
Stay well folks.

Re: Just a test of a theory.
Interesting study Mike. Guessing that a low relief piece of art would need some pretty creative light set ups to really make it “pop”. Multiple lights some at “grazing” angles to the piece ?

Re: Just a test of a theory.
Thanks mate, I think you are spot on, unless the geometry is well oversize, it can be difficult to just 'see' it. Drawing board while I search for some race car vibes.
Re: Just a test of a theory.
The geometry has been enlarged and lights (Recessed) added. Much closer to the intent.

Re: Just a test of a theory.
I think it’s a cool effect your shooting for. Almost needs to be the focal point with lighting adjusted to really make it pop. Unfortunately I suspect not every observer will “get” it.

Re: Just a test of a theory.
Thanks mate, I think this is the right way to go for the effect so will stop here. The only thing I might consider is both up AND down lighting to bring the geometry into more stark relief.
One light here rather than two.

Re: Just a test of a theory.
That last image is looking pretty good!
There is a red cast on the walls likely from some over-saturated textures/colors in the scene?
ps - regarding your Fleetwood Mac question... yes.

Re: Just a test of a theory.
Ta mate, oversaturated texture, yes I agree. Wood perhaps benefit from an adjustment or three. Punny too.
