Decent looking glass

[kiwi dave]

Hi all. I have been given the task of making a beer bottle. The modelling was straight forward, but I'm having a few problems with the texturing.

I found an image in the gallery by David Jean that perfectly illustrates the kind of glass effect I'm after (eg shot in a studio).

Does anyone know of good tips and tricks, or a good tutorial about this kind of thing.

Cheers

Dave

By the way, my bottle has to be against a stark white background. Here it is so far.

Make sure to use the fast fresnel...

Also check on some threads with glass... the use of air polygons, double sided, etc... There are some recent threads...
