Get groovy, dudes and dudettes! That old wonder of the 60's is back, in its own Forgeable edition!
Update: Better background options: gradient or transparent. ^_
NOTES:
This filter works best with a square file. A non-square file won't crash it or distort it; you'll just get some partial repeats. ^_
The "Grey Check Bkgnd" checkbox is just there to highlight the transparency of the glass and the liquid in it. I don't think it looks all that great, really, but it's less time-expensive than a noise background.
You will notice you only get one lamp shape – to allow for different shapes would make it difficult to get the cap and base in the right place. In fact, I'm not sure if I could do it at all! ;_
This filter was inspired by ThreeDee's totally fabulous "Lathe Internal Profile" snippet. ThreeDee, you rock!
Enjoy! =^_
