Kitchen model - first customer!

[lapx]

Hello Nick,

Looks great man! I just heard about the PV thing just yesterday and tried it today. It worked great except I had some areas of the PV that were shaded darker in areas. Did you get any dark areas? If so, how did you avoid them? Also do you have any experience in doing this via Kerkythea?

regards,

lapx

Nick,
Great start and congratulation on Your first
customer.

Thanks everyone. I'll keep your suggestions in mind. and I'll post the next iteration here.

@lapx - I didn't notice any dark spots, you can view it via the link in my initial post. and I don't have any experience doing this in K. though it seems the concept would be the same - just render 6 images: forward, right, back, left, up, down. then grind it out in gocubic.

Nick, I solved my problem with the dark shadows thanks to Gaieus. The trick is to have the sun for shading boxed check with sun off. It worked fine. As for K I understand there's a better way to do it with only one spherical rendering which would save time but i'm not sure how that method works and what programs are needed to accomplish the stitching. Maybe someone with more expertise can help us out.

With the cubic pano out ruby you can set that it creates camera views in corresponding scene tabs which later you can export to Kerky and and render there (you obviously only need to set up the materials, lights and such once) finally simply use GoCubic again.

Sorry if it was already answered above - I just ran through again but could not find.

Martin ("FormerlyKnownAsMartin") made a beautiful panorama this way.

Nick, congratulations! Nice job!

Needs some depth through shadows or shading, can't wait to see the next pass.

Tina and Bruce, thanks for your encouragement. It's nice to know I've got friends here rooting for me.

nick,

i must say it looks better now, sunnier perhaps. i hope the final material is not too dark so that you can keep this quality.

[Nick W]

thanks Edson. I agree it looks better and brighter. I believe the final cabinet material will be white painted as shown.

[Nick W]

where it's at right now...

still holding off on post-processing - waiting on info to finish up details, revisions, etc.
