Great render, I like the highlight on the bathtub and lighting on the arches. Very nice... allanx

@frederik said: Nice mood... @mrdcon said: rendered in 1.75 hours. Is that equal to 1 hour 45 minutes...? (Never seen time shown in 100) yes... 1 hour 45 mintues.

It's a Direct Vent Fireplace .... it vents straight out the back.

yeah, that is all coming down..I think that's just a veneer as well. I haven't actually been out to the site, but my coworkers have. the garage is part as well...turning it into a small indoor/outdoor bar as well as some storage and a spot for their dumpster.

Yes looks fun tomb raider springs to mind ! Gonna need some rails though.

@daniel said: All three words are synonymous. In the U.S. I think most would use the term ottoman. Thanks for your explonation and compliment. I have searched on these words but each word have several meanings, some of them are a bit weird. @daniel said: I tried modeling a sofa once - looked like it was carved from stone. I hope these models makes it a bit easier

Thanks!

Thanks, I'll create some more as soon as I got some time. Maybe a breakdown explaining the process...

I guess the Gecko was not a good idea. I have now started a new post for Studio Rendering, using a green dragon: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=81%26amp;t=56904

OK, I have started this as a new thread using Green Dragon: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=81%26amp;t=56904

Thank you Jeremy.

Top notch!

Excellent as always!

that glowing onyx material is really cool. maybe needs some rounded edges all around to give it a little more detail, since its such a simple striking design.

Overall, nice rendering. A few points (IMHO): The people appear to have a white halo around them, and comparing them to the materials and the car, they look out of scale (too small). The gray wall in the background looks flat, devoid of any texture - doesn't look realistic. You have some light rays projecting from some of the top corners - why? It seems out of place in what looks like an otherwise photorealistic approach. If your going for a more mannerist style that emphasizes the form, you should use that approach on the whole form you want to emphasize. Water seems a bit too agitated for a swimming pool.

Thanks Krisidious.

Most of my images are about empty spaces , i.e. no people - a moment caught out of time Here's 2 more NPR images, concentrating again on light. [image: bXFT_Carnivalcomestotown02T.jpg] [image: MOu7_Carnivalcomestotown04T.jpg]
