WIP - Downtown Building
-
Haha... I see what you're saying! I'm going to be doing the building right next to it tomorrow which should help. Maybe then it won't look like it is falling over...
-
i dont know...looks pretty great to me, david... night renders can be tough! really like the super subtle overlay..
-
Man, that is really good.
-
Looks really good, David.
-
Like everyone else have said, it looks really good...

Indeed night renders are tough..!!To improve these, You could change some of the outdoor spot-lights to IES-lights, which I'm sure will add some more realism to the renders...

Please let me know if you need help/advice with this...

Nice building David.

I hope to design something like that some day! -
All right Frederik... I do need some help! Do you convert mesh to IES lights or do you use the pointlight or spotlights for them! I have the material pack with the IES lights but I wasn't exactly sure how to use them! I'm sure you could lead me in the right direction... Thanks man!

Spot-lights...

My pleasure, David...

The easiest way - perhaps - will be to follow the steps in the Converting spot to IES lights thread at the KT Forum...
The steps may sound a little tricky, but once you've converted a couple, I'm sure you'll agree that it's not that complicated...

(But we are looking for an improvement/easier way to do this...
)If you get stuck, just send me a PM and I will be happy to help you further...

-
only just found the TDK image. nice one - I think I like the overall mood of this image more

oh yes, IES lighting... tried it once with indigo. looks great. but was too lazy to investigate further.
but I am looking forward to see your new night-render with IES
-
Thanks guys... I will be doing this rendering for a board... so I will make an attempt to do these IES lights! I also have to do some interior shots so I would think that these would help a lot! Stay tuned...

it's like rendering with piranesi, but that's good technique

-
Small update on this project...

Very nice.
-
Amazing Images.
I think is showing a live building...
(nothing against the empty people renders... witch are cool for other porpouses)The only thing that seams a little bit strange for me is the angle in the perspective...
it looks like the building is suffering some wind forces.. haha
For me, something more close to a 2 point perspective looks more real..Anyway, good stuff!

Thanks, it was mentioned to me earlier but I forgot to change it. This project isn't going to go away anytime soon so I am going to fix it in future renderings.
