Look at this tutorial http://www.xaraxone.com/tutorials/jun01/index.htm It is very old but Xara has not changed too much from the time it was made.

thanks - convolution is brilliant
i like the burner effect one even if it defies the laws of physics as the oxygen would get used up instantly inside a bulb. it's an interesting juxtaposition though.
Igor, your imagination is wonderfully spent on the variations you've made from an incandescent light bulb.
If I may, without sounding negative, you'd get a more metallic look on the threads of the bulbs if you added some contrast, like this:
Use m ore pure black and white and a little less grey.
Metal reflects its environment, and photographers often hang white and black strips of paper in studio just off-camera to "paint" some detail onto an otherwise visually vacant type of material.
Keep up the good work and I'm sorry I saw this thread so late!
My Best,
Gary
Gary,
Thank you for your interest in my crazy pictures even comment.
Your concerns with metal threads are absolutely correct.
I do not impose a complete objective view of reality - just a hint of recognition.
But perhaps it came time to work on it
The following bulb may be closer to reality
