Not bad, bobby!  Try turning one dark to see how well it blocks the light.

Thanks, guessing you mean black with no Luminosity...will try that later...supper time here.

Loaded up my old test file and tweaked it a bit.  I was able to remove the old divot shadows in my glow and it only took me eleven and a half months.  Cranked up the blur radius.  It does look better, but I also lost some of the glow that was pouring over the low hex on the right.  I guess I'll try a bounce to the ounce version next, but my render times are becoming unbearable at this point.

That's pretty good, bobby, albeit a little grainy.  .tgd?

That's the texture I have on the ground...I'll 86 that and try again also without the spot light for a control.

forgive me Martin, my ADD  kicked in and I slipped into a sci fi psychedellia phase. Put a chrome ball in to get a cool back shot as well. Win.
