I never really played with the compositor until recently as it just sounded complicated and my brain was already swamped with Blender but i was stupid as it really is not that hard to absorb how to use it or at least the basic uses within it…im not sure of the best way to explain it…its kind of a photoshop filters function built into blender where you can quickly and easily add effects to your renders…filters and what not through render layers …add a glare to something shiny or a gaussian blur …it only took a few minutes for me to add the effects to that necklace …a glare filter for the sparkles and RGB curves for the contrast and completely change the final result .so you can pretty quickly change the entire way a render presents.or even add effects to individual parts…its worth taking a look into, i wish i did it sooner! So if you have not looked into the compositor before give this quick video a look and start playing with it, you will be glad you did it Thats the awesome thing about this weekly for me , im constantly learning new things when i make things for it!

wow, cheers for the link, thats a really good vid. I kind of stayed away thinking that would be a monster topic to cover, but he puts it across really well.
Need to give it a go myself at some point this week. Ill apologise now tho for sore eyes and over use of filters lol
