    Famous free scan of a head was a real challenge to me. The problem I was tweaking for long was glossiness map that has given a lot of strange effects together with glossy transmission material settings. Additional; back lightning was set up essentially to light through an ear. I took a lot of trial renderings to find how to correct the glossines map a bit and I am not happy with it still. Maybe next time.

    Lights can be further affected by IES (a good supply can be found here.)

    NOTE:

    1. The shader on the cube is a LUX Materials Mix shader comprising of a GlossyCoating over a Lux NULL Material mixed with a plane Matte, all controlled by a greyscale texture map.
    2. When using LUX Materials Mix, make sure that you are mising two different types; I found mixing between two Mattes produced a dull grey image...

    THANK YOU

    have spent many a long day seeking ies lights smiley

    LuxCoreRender v 2.2 is ready to use. It has na amazing set of features.

    Standalone release is available for plugin development too... The one for Blender 2.8 is ready for download now.

    Would be happy with new LuxusCore plugin for Carrara. Am I only dreaming?
