Very impressive

It looks great Rich.

@stefanq said: Where do you put your specular maps? In the "Penpendicular" map slot of my TexFresnel reflection, and in the Highlight glossiness and Reflection glossiness. I think this is the best configuration. It loads the bitmap three times, which can be heavy with big textures, but this is the most realistic I came up with.

Thanks for the comments. I replied to this this morning but looks like I hit Preview button instead old age comes to us all. "different approach" maybe wrongly worded. I was unhappy with the finished render as it was overly green, so lowered the saturation and applied a colour wash overlay and changed the blending mode. My first attempt at digital watercolour John

Excellent job Allanx, particularly the copper green colour very refreshing on the eye.

ok, thanks mate. I'll have a play and see how I go...

@ chedda: thanks for your input and yes, I do agree with you on an artificial lighting in the scene. I'm still working on it and I'm trying to improve it, will post as soon as I'll be satisfied with it. @ Bryan K: it's not a photo match, I used hdri image in vray and played with angles H/V to get it right. @ jerisamui: thanks for the help cheers

These are so great! Love them... Only issue I'm seeing though is the segmentation on that curved part..

Ah, OK thank you! I will try that.

tomislavm looks like you are having lots of fun with lumion, nice images!!! agree with Bryan K: sunset image is excellent best V

Thanx! I use V-Ray for the renders.

That looks great. Good design and good render.

Thank everyone! I appreciate it! @jsmith said: ...One criticism would be in the closeup the background is too near in value to the roof. Might look better to lighten background some. That is a really good point and one I agree with. Although, it is common in the area which this house is built for designers to do that on purpose. There are some areas where builders only have 3 or 4 choices for stucco colors and they will virtually match the mountains exactly! And some areas which even only allow a 4-5 foot profile to be shown above the natural landscape. Thanks again!

Wow... Fantastic imagination.
