I concur, almost there mate. I have tried several surfaces with differing transparency and a cloud terxture. Might be worth trying again.

Thanks.

The original picture is this foggy background, only it has better lighting I could not reproduce. Raylectron is a great program but very diffuse lighting through fog is not one of its strengths. I spent all week trying to find any solution, including mechanical effects like screens within the model and such and nothing worked. This was the best I could get.

Update. Very minor subtle changes.

Those trees gotta go.

I'm thinking of making a custom tree. Those are words I thought I'd ever be able to say.

Also just got an update to Raylectron. Much better lighting control and so much faster.

Thanks, but I don't see SU files. Can you tel me where to look? Thanks. I really need a better tree for this model.

This model and render are actually a compromise of the original picture. I had two problems, the trees and the outdoor fog and light. I may have resolved the fog/light issue, and I've found the tree that more closely match the original picture, but it looks bad in the lighting set-up.

VBery nice work Bryan. I liked the prior blue wall, the combination of that (Night Sky colour) worked with the spherical lamp. Like a mood in the night sky, That is what works so very well

Cool! Thanks! I may just go with that with then and the very minor furniture tweaks and updated render.
