I get a lot of questions from viewers about my lighting techniques and render settings. This is (sloppily) made as a - hopefully - one-size-fits-all response to most of those questions, and to help some people out a little.

If you still have questions, ask below, on my profile page, or on whichever deviation you think is appropriate. I'm also reachable by a PM. If you use these techniques on a scene at all, let me know!

Hey there! thanks for the great tutorial...say, im new to blender...please excuse my ignorance... what is YAFARAY? how do I download it and use it? i just use the normal Blender Render and barely touch the Cycles Render.

Yafaray is an excellent third-party unbiased renderer for Blender, and my personal 'Weapon of Choice' as it's great for still scenes with a wide variety of materials. It can be downloaded and installed from Yafaray's own website - www.yafaray.org - but for ease I use a build from www.graphicall.org with it already built-in. Have a look for a build for your platform on there, I use megasoft78's 64-bit Ubuntu version.

Note that if you use one of these builds, Yafaray has to be enabled in the addons menu and changed from Blender Render via the drop-down at the top of the main workspace.

Let me know how you get on!
