How to get a wave effect in materials Vray-Sketchup

Hey there,

 

I'm curious how to obtain the wave affect of the metal in the overhead light in this rendering of a Kitchen.

 

Thanks,

Kelvin

i would get a picture of a nice wave (hawaii north shore perhaps) and then put that in a displacement map on subdivided geometry

this ensures a genuine wavey effect

thanks

Put a noise map in the bump map set to a really low value and make sure its scaled up so the effect is subtle.
