Hi everyone, Had some free time today to play around, so I thought I could make some more renders, perhaps this time try some indoor rendering. It's supposed to be some underground parking, nothing fancy, just walls and columns. So I think these renders look a bit better (or at least more realistic) than the old ones: [image: ferrari red garage1.jpg] [image: ferrari gray garage1.jpg] [image: ferrari black garage1.jpg]

Great work Jason ,and a pretty slick website too

As you can see here I wanted the ground to be reflective but when I have shadows turned on I get a big shadow on the ground below even when i uncheck the box to say I dont want shadows on the ground or faces, however when I light the scene using the sun there are no ground shadows? Wonder if its a glitch or im going around it the wrong way. Anyway another model another render. [image: 20090821223237_6m4s.jpg]

In architect point of view, design of this bldg. is quite simple. But when see ur presentation, it become very nice condo. So amazing to me.

I wonder how the result come if draw bldg.in snow surrounding with native SU (non-rendering)? If u have some, pls show us. for this pic, I have no doubt nice design and excellent rendering.

U need to spend a bit time to put more details in ur work. Not only building but environment also. For example, ur tree look too massive, put people and cars, the glass look matt and non-transparent etc. I suggest u to study more about material and color scheme too. I strongly recommend u should try human-eye level view first, Much easier to do than bird eye view. U have nice start,keep go on.

no...i wish. well i used match colour (background image as source) at first to get a general hue of the background photo, with v low opacity. then was just a case of curves, levels, hue/saturation, contrast, colour balance. selective colour, gradients, sharpness, high pass filter, offset grunge overlay for better texturing. playing with different belnding modes helps a lot I always make sure to use adjustment layers as clipping masks too so you can fade them in/out. once the shadows and general colour was right I flattened the image and worked on the photo and render together to add more warmth, sharpness, god rays (v pale), depth, saturation and finally a vignette at the end. the actual render was very off in colour (very yellow and saturated) and stuck out like a sore thumb cos its texture baked from in-game images.

Oliver, these look really nice. I like them a lot! go to the pub and start drinking at once! I want you to have some more hangovers. then you can delight us with such artwork again!!!

Hi Dale, I am using Maxwell render, here is another view, not finish yet [image: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2591/3841254565_f65c6551a7_o.jpg]

It's alive! It's ALIIIVVEEE! [image: tn_0bert9-2weird4.jpg]

That looks great, the soft focus really works well.

You might want to add some kids or playground equipment to that area to illustrate it's use.

Bravo Nomer

I like the overall presentation, although i think the sky could do with being desaturated a bit, to match the grass and focus the eye on the building a bit more.

@unknownuser said: i like how you covered up Rooney's name on the back of that man utd shirt!! Well even if you only have 10 minutes, you have to exercise some standards.

I see what you mean, you are absolutely right. Is this better?

Thank you, Rogue and dtrarch!

thanks micha... i will test this water out and see what i come up with. Much appreciated.
