      I did this rendering in vray and had a little trouble at first. I couldnt get the windows to work quite right because I had no images of the surroundings to use billboards for the reflections and I didnt have time to model surroundings, but when I put it all together in Photoshop I was glad I didnt do that. Just looking at the way the sun is shining on the buildings, there really is not too much reflection in any of the buildings so I feel like it may have worked out ok. Let me know what you think please cause I could use any critiques or feedback, especially when it comes to exterior scenes.
      Thank you in advance

        Fantastic work as usual mate, any chance of seeing the before image (photo) without the SU merge and the model alone? It's always great to see them in the raw before the blend.

          wow...that's great... awesome composite.. i think if the rendering was saturated just a tiny bit more, and some reflection/shine on the windows...it'd be tough to pick it out from the photo...

                  Maybe a silly question here but can you give a short description about how you dealt with the power lines and poles that run between the model and the viewer? I'm going to need to know how to do this and you did it perfectly! Really great work.

                    Thanks for the feedback guys. Here is an update; I editied it a little more in photoshop. I really needed some help with the windows and "Jigsaw", over on the v-ray forum, gave me some suggestions and i took them and what I read here to edit it. I hope it looks more convincing.

                    Solo: Heres the raw render, the update, and the photo to match the scene with. Hope it helps. Let me know if you want to see anything else.

                    ehaflett: This may not be what you want to hear but I actually had to individually lasso the power lines and erase parts that werent needed. Then I combinedd them all into one layer and pulled them to the front. It seemed to work for me but it was a little time consuming. It is doable but Im sure there is an easier way. Im still amateur when it comes to photoshop. If you have any other questions though, feel free to ask.

                        Great job on the power lines. I've never been a fan of cutting around trees/lampposts etc in photoshop. Very time consuming. Usually I just try and remove the trees altogether, and put fake ones in both the before and after shot. This can also cover up imperfections. This method obviously doesn't always work.

                        Anyway, the cut-out job you've done is perfect!

                          the latest version with the reflections of post and trees in the windows (I understand that you added them in photoshop? excellent!) really convinces me.

                          you did a great job there - especially how you integrated the building in the surroundings! ๐Ÿ‘

                            Thanks guys. Yeah the refelctions where added in Photoshop and the cut out job as well. Im not gonna lie, there was a significant amount of post processing, as you can probably tell from the images, but it seemed to work out considering that im still not the greatest at photoshop.

                            Solo: I can post a tut as soon as i get some time. Just let me know what part you want to know about...the model, rendering, post processing etc...? But if you have any general questions, feel free to ask.

                              Thanks Steeler. I'm glad to hear it was something as simple as that and not some crazy advanced technique that I've never heard of. I probably would have used this same technique too. I'm very noobish with PS as well so it's nice to know that it just came down to spending the time to get it right. Also love the trees and wires reflecting in the windows, very nice.

                                    Yeah it was pretty time consuming but not as bad as I originally thought when looking at the starting image. All in all it took about 2-3 hours in photoshop. I just needed to really sit down for an hour or so and just be willing to get into it in order to get those wires even close to what they need to be. But thanks again to all the feedback.

                                        I like this very much. The photo realism is striking with what seemed to me at first a traditional rendering. Maybe it is the colors and lines of the buildings and the choice of perspective with the power lines, I was reminded of Tcherikov.
