Coffee Beans Cup with Coffee Art

Last crawled date: 7 years, 1 month ago

This is a coffee cup made from coffee bean particles, and rendered with a real coffee art texture (made from a photo I took myself at a nearby cafe a week ago). The blend also includes an original coffee bean texture. The coffee beans are actually a particle system that can be applied to any object, and the original coffee bean particle object is on the last layer (and therefore can be easily modified). There is also a three-point lighting system included (but the rim and fill lights were disabled to give the render a low-key look).Also note that the particle system is set to 7000 particles for the render which can cause Blender to slow down a little. You should lower it to 70 or so when working on the file (to prevent Blender from slowing down). Turn it back to 7000 (or whatever you choose) before rendering.Have fun trying the coffee bean particle system on your own objects, as well!EDIT: Updated coffee bean material to be more realistic (glossy and darker). Also increased size of bean to be more realistic to scale of coffee cup.Latest Change on 2015/03/24, 20:40:52Updated coffee bean material to be more realistic (glossy and darker).
