Foil is a ultra-thin sheet of polished metal that creates a highly reflective, crinkled surface with sharp, bright highlights and deep, shadowed creases.
Rendering Realistic Foil
To master the look of foil, focus on the interplay of light and texture. The material relies entirely on extreme contrast to look convincing.
- Lighting is key: Use a single, strong directional light source to produce sharp, blown-out highlights right next to deep, dark shadow folds.
- Emphasize the micro-creases: Without fine crinkles and sharp geometric folds, foil can easily look like smooth chrome or liquid metal.
