A 'realistic' drop shadow can never be smaller than the occluding object itself.

A 'realistic' drop shadow can never be smaller than the occluding object itself.
- iainmerrick 6y agoIt can appear that way if the light source is large, or there are multiple light sources. Then what you mostly see is a faint penumbra rather than a dark shadow (the umbra).
- grenoire 6y agoTrue, this is looking like a studio light setup to me, and it's rather pleasing (albeit not making much sense.)
- molf 6y agoI assumed it was to simulate perspective.
- huhtenberg 6y agoSure it can be. Just needs an area light source or more than one spot source.
