For some lamps/objects you could disable shadow cast/receive.
For an outside scene you would expect a single (sun) shadow.

have fun.

If you are using a sun lamp, by changing its angle you can soften the shadows.

We @BlenderCollab have a few days to vote. You can vote fast but also think slowly about design, colors, technique, difficulty, subject, realism, etc. Choose consciously and not on your entry.
The new subject week 06 “xxx” has already started. The winner of this week’s “Wine yards” challenge may select a subject for next week 07 and win a badge.

So bummed out I could not join this time. Ended up doing something else, to get the kid into blender.

@Crisus , congratulations on your winning entry about vineyards. It’s a clear perspective on the subject.


  • gallmerci - it has potential. It has some scaling issues Grape vs. Barrel

Note: I don’t want to offend anyone. I try to write down positive ideas and visions in my simple use of the English language. I am also sometimes more inspired by a particular subject or solution. I’m also learning from you!
