The glass is not coloured, there is an emitter type in Twilight V2 to mimic the gas lamp, I need to find a way to adjust the temp for a better facsimile. Going by temp gives the result you see.

Very nice to see your photography lessons worked out well worth the time, Is that a Canon Eos for those shots?

Ah! Thanks! Yes, I've seen those on many other boats. For some reason it was not on the plans of this one and I did not see any other references, but I would now bet it was just left off of the plans for brevity and the assumption by the designer that anyone would know that one should be there. No problem. Easily added.

@ntxdave said: As I came back to look at it again, I am wondering how the glass top is secured to the legs so that it does/can not move? ntxdave, Most of these style of pieces had a small “pad” where the glass sits on the legs. They relied on the weight of the glass to keep things in place. Not the kind of furniture where you’re going to perch on the edge.

@rich o brien said: That's very good. Do you think the plants at the cobble wall are even needed? I assume you mean the stone feature central to my render ?

@l i am said: Challenged or not that is an amazing painting. I connot remember if I have seen a painting with depth of field before Does anybody else see DOF in that image? The lady can paint.

Great Post. Thanks

I would swear that's a photo!

Wow! Just... wow!

Bryan, Mike … Thanks for the positive feedback

Thanks mate, I have another layout in mind which will remove the issue..

@Liam Yeah, I got a pair at launch. The case stop holding a charge so I ended up looking for a manual on the site. That prompted me to model them while I updated firmware.

Really nice result with just the right amount lethality to prevent kids climbing it

Thanks ntxdave. I'm trying to get out of the habit of under-lighting my scenes.

Ah. I see it now. Thanks.

Thanks tuna!

Here is another option for seeing the house in multiple perspectives. Check how your pet sees the environment you are creating for it. https://youtu.be/i2LOhQmr6I4

@bryan k said: I prefer rubberized floors for kitchens and floors, but that is too un-orthodox for most people. Better safe than sorry!

@tuna1957 said: Interesting progression of the different renders. Looks like your starting to figure out the new equipment and render engine. Thanks! Yes. Better tools and practice with them makes all the difference. I'm loving it!

@l i am said: Hey Bryan, you have taken a few leaps in this image. firstly you made landscape topography and mare importantly you used a reference image as inspiration. Learning by trying to reference another image is absolute key to learning and improving skills. If anybody asked me the key learning modelling and rendering that would be my advice do that until you do not have to do it anymore I am in total agreement with you. BTW, Nice render Bryan!
