hey everyone, this is a total begginer question so sorry if its dumb lol, im currently trying to render a logo, this is a model i did in zbrush but it doesnt have any uv nor maps or anything, i attached a aistandardsurface texture and the a aicomplexior one to make it look like metal (alluminum) im getting this, i want the actual front of the model to not look as flat as it looks, i have a front area light and a skydome one. i know im doing something wrong, or everything

thanks in advance.

The object is flat so it will look flat. Expected behavior.

the only way to make it pop up is, adding maps to a specular or just adding texture to the front?

Do you have an example what you would like todo?

Your model has 90 sharp corners. Your example has bevels. Either add bevels to the model or use the Arnold rounded corners node.

+ in the ref image is a giant area light making those bright reflections.
