Hello people,
I made this lava lamp but I think it looks a bit weird or is it just me.
You don't have to rate it but c&c please. Ohw and I didn't animate it because I'm planning to make a room full of alts I'm going to make.

The Lava is a weird color Dont like it >:(
Looks like the one on cokemusic. :P Needs a bit of shading. Looks flat.
Ok, different colour and more shading. Thanks guys.
Do you mean more shading on the lava?
EDIT:I changed colour. Is it better now?

desperately needs shading, looks like a cardboard cut out
Can you people tell me what part needs shading?? The lava or the grey parts??
The lava bit looks great, but i dont like the overall shape.It just doesnt look right. It looks like a missile. 7/10
I know. I have one looking like that at my room. So it doesn't look wierd to me.Quote:

you haven't added any shade dude, you just spotted it :S.. don't see the use really as that is no way to make graphics transparent.Quote:

..then why do you publish it?? You never publish work or call it finished (either of it) until you're satisfied.. then you might just take up golf or something.Quote:

Ah, yes. Thanks. Glad somebody helped me. Now I know where to put shading. Do you mind if I use yours to make a room full of alts? (if I'm still going to do that)Quote:

1. Create a light INSIDE either at the top or bottom, all lava lamps produce light.
2. USE the lights location to add shine and shadow to the lava blobs, blending the two colors together with several middle shades.
3. Shape the lamp, the base of the lamp [the plastic] nearly always has a slight stand to keep heat off of the surface the lamp is sitting on. Also shape the glass maybe taking it in or widening it at the glass.
4. Put some more shading on the plastic [after your reshape] taking note of where youve put the light in.
I hope that helps :)
Shape isnt right. Look like a bullet or a missle. Here I alted yours to a rough shape. Used andermans shaded base.
yes this shape is way better.
