just finished a rhino/ 3ds model (hurray!) at the expense of my HOS paper (sigh...). it becomes quite clear to me that I have mastered another studio technique that would send me straight to hell as soon as I start doing it in the real world: render with reflective surfaces all the time, regardless of whether the designated material is reflective or not. To me, therefore, concrete, stone, leaves, people... are all as reflective as glass. Another one is irrational transparency, which involves turning concrete transparent.

Nonetheless, I cannot be more excited about being able to add one more item to my weapons of choice.
