Eggs and Their Textures

The textures for the eggs were my next point of attack.



The dark blue egg we have seen before but I was able to very slightly improve even that texture with the use of BodyPaint, by which means you can paint directly on the model as if it was a real egg sitting in your hand, well... almost.

The white eggs themselves have a very simple colour - white - and the rest is achieved using displacement:



Of course the use of lights helps a lot too.

A light set inside one of these, produced a really beautiful effect:






Like Ice:

Or these that look like they've been drenched in powdered icing sugar.

Or with slightly different lighting, they look like soot has fallen over them.






And finally the pale blue egg.
