Thanks Cotty & faust07

But who needs the antennas at the chimney today?

Most houses in the UK still have TV aerials - either for Freeview digital TV or because the occupants haven’t bothered to take them down (I’m guilty on that front). All the aerials in the render exist in reality.

Completely brilliant.

Hieru

Thanks HornOxx & Mike Amos.

Revisiting these images, the one thing I'm not happy about is the flatness of the lighting. It's closer to real world conditions than if I used an unclipped HDR, but I think I took things too far.

The flatness is in part down to using a 360 sky from Streetview. I think I just need to add a little physical sun, or paste an HDR sun into the Streetview sky.

Excellent result!

Competent and professional! Nice.
The one thing i would change is the use of the auto in the first image.

Putting a very nice, shiny, car at a sexy angle dead front and center in the image makes me wonder what your selling...the car, or your design:)

Hieru

Thanks guys.

@pmolson The property is situated on a busy main road, so you currently have to stop traffic and reverse onto the drive, or reverse out into traffic. The client needed the visuals to show that the new design allowed enough driveway for two cars and space to turn the car around.

Good work, really nice! I love how you use proxies. And these aerials look fine to me

I just realized this: why do you use that texture for glass? Is there any reason? Is it a secret trick?

Hieru

The glass texture is added in order to use bump. I do this to add the same distortion seen with real glazing.

Thank you David, nice trick!
