I have a quick question for a rendering project. I am creating an ad for a small bike business I am going to start this spring. So I created a logo using SW. While the SW model looks great as is, I thought why not use Photoview to smooth things out a bit. I have played around with it and things look great. However, there is one part that I am not pleased with. In the SW model, the white lettering on the tire portion of the ad looks great. Nice and white! When I go ahead and render it, the white basically bleeds out and dissapears. Consequently, the lettering is tough to read. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Brandon

Guys,

I fixed the issue. Initially I had the text CUT into the tire. The text was cut about a 1/4" into the tire. I switched the cut into an extrude boss and whala, it rendered just fine. I suppose with the cut function, light was having trouble reaching the bottom of it.

Thanks for all the tips,

Brandon

Brandon,

I like the logo,

It looks like you might need more lighting, maybe a spot light to highlight that areas,

You can also try and make the white lettering using white lights instead of white color.

Camera view also might be an option.

it will take some trial and error.

Number of different things to try, just a case of playing around with lighting and appearances. Have you tried contour rendering? This would give a nice clear result. If you are willing to email the file I would do some renders for you?

Hi Brandon,

Your lettering appearance might be reflective and is absorbing the surroundings. Try reducing the reflection amount and increase your luminous intensity. Just a guess!

Have a good weekend

Hi Brandon,

I think while extruding the text in your part/assembly file you might have given "merge result" option. Please remove that ,select text face and apply white color. I think now you will get good image. Please give your feedback.
