>No one *actually* does hard surface in Blender, right?
I only do soft surfaces in Blender personally. Things like cheese or silk or milk. Skin is soft enough, but only on fat people, else the muscles get in the way. I've made curtains in Blender, that's perfectly okay.

Cements or bricks are just impossible. The value of the hardness is too much. I'm not even talking about steel or diamond, the strongest metal known to man. In my experience, if you can't bend it with your hand, you can't render it in Blender. That's because of the physically based softness rendering tech of Blender, who refuses to render anything in cycle if the material is too damn hard.

I assume that's because the simulated rays can't "enter" into the material, the physically based shaders are too hard for photons to enter it if you can't deform it with your fingers. That's a hard problem with Blender, and I sure hope I could render anything "harder" than foam in the future. Cycle should really be able to ignore how structurally resilient the material is before rendering.
