      Tile. Yeah. That gave me fits on the kitchen render. I can relate.

      On the lighting, just a little would be perfect. Too much and it would ruin the mood you are trying set.

      Like I said, good overall scene.

      It takes me hours to set up a render these days. Most of that is spent waiting for a "good enough" image to see if my settings are close to what I am trying to achieve. After several hours, I just say "close enough" and go with it because I really do not feel like spending 8+ hours setting up a render, and then waiting several MORE hours for it to complete when I'm not getting paid for it. πŸ˜„

      I have but one computer and there are other things I need it for besides rendering. πŸ˜‰ (and it's old as well)

            I think we are all related in this family of Sketchucation. All trying to learn and get it right. Luckily we have this place to visit.

            A full night version of the render.


            Who turned that light OFF.

                Hardly cryptic is it? Still trying to find a decent balance. Next.


                New mats and light level.

                    Definitely has the "atmosphere." Love the light on the floor!

                          Ta mate, this might be the last of the night/evening renders.


                          Viewing Angle altered.

                                Pool lighting effect is great! I like the angle on the last one best too.

                                  Hi Mike I cant make out if she is looking at a window or a tv? I just thought that either way if you put someting cool from a movie as a screenshot and turned the image into a light emitter that would add so much to the image. I am pretty sure that is do-able in just about any render engine.
