David, It's a treat and a great help to follow your thoughts on this. I like this last one best! The background forest in the former one was a little "threatening". With the foreground, this is very friendly but I wonder if the owners expected a sand driveway. It looks like one of the victims of the recession. Never leased or got the parking lot. Peter

@stefanq: thanks for the tip on nomers composition tutorial. I've learned a few things. I've noticed that there are a lot of tutorials for SU and other 3d modeling software that cover the basics like basic modeling, texturing light setup and rendering, but not a lot of good tutorials for more advanced things like compositing, material creation(accurate)and environment modeling.

@seven.sides said: This is a very nice image, has a good colour balance and feel to it. Enough contrast but not overdone. The birds flying over bring the scene to life. I've often thought a still render could be enhanced by animated elements such as this as a kind of short animation clip, maybe that loops. thanks, seven.

The modelling looks very good and clean. From recently using Maxwell I can advise that in order to successfully render interiors, it is necessary to alter the physical camera settings (I made the classic mistake of increasing the light intensity to compensate for a dark render). To me the render looks a bit dark, so change the ISO settings of the camera "film" to a higher value. If it is currently 100, try 400 and then 800. This mimicks the use of settings on a real world camera within the renderer. Enjoy

Very nice and very clean. The sky might work better if it was flipped horizontally,that way you would have the dark clouds accentuated against the 2 outside lights.It would also pick up the reflected light on the right hand gable which seems to suggest the brightest part of the sky is to the right.

perfect

Great rendering ! How did you get the glow effect in Photoshop ? (around the windows)

thanks for comment Fymoro and aadb and yes,la idea era que la mesa acapare la atencion en la tercer imagen. Greatings

Nice one, texture are great...

oh thank you. I will have a look

Wow! Wonderfully done! I really like the subtle tonal range of your rendering and the soft lightning. Thanks Rob

Thanks Rich

aa

artemide has also some nice cad models on their website

Well, it's just a flyer to get some business generated with contractors. Here is one part. I was just thought it was pretty easy in LO. Yes I printed in digital at the Office Depot and it was fine. OK so I owe a picture.Contractor Flyer second page I'm not sure how the pdf will look unless one DL's and views at the full size.

Thank you John and Richard. Richard the plants are all layers added in PS, pretty mundane stuff. I'd much rather be modeling than texturing or Photoshopping. thanks John

Thanks mate, I get it now. Must be my old eyes. That and the apartments I have been producing are 15' wide by 15' or 30' or about 4.5m X 4.5m or 9m.

We all know that SU is not the "greatest" tool for animation, but I have to say that you have done really good job. Camera seams a bit jumpy in few spots. Overall, the client should be able to get what he asked for. What other software did you use to do this animation?

I just happened to notice that the reflection of a window on the curve of the piano suggests to me that the surface is curved in a spherical way? But of course, I have photographed plenty of visual anomalies and this could be one of those instances where the condition does not follow the expectation.

new update ......hopu u like
