SU-Maxwell- scale model in wood
-
Mate for some reason the image took sometime this end to load and I got to read all the replies prior to seeing the image so I was half baked after the comments as to what I was going to see!
Then saw the image, scraped my jaw of the ground and smiled! VERY NICE!
Mate I can see a little Stck studio influence here with the vintage use of cars! The trees are simply stunning and the camera perfect! So bloody well done mate!
I have to however agree with Oli, scaling the scene down would have helped a lot with DOF which for me the image is really wanting this might also assist in the tree poly issue!
And mate I see what others are saying with the glass! It could for me use about 3-5% roughness or even the cheap plexiglass material from the gallery though in that case with a reduced roughness. The fully reflective glass is actually causing the excess foreground illumination and this is slightly aver exposing some of the forground elements. Making the glass geo "hidden to reflections" may fix this though I'm not sure though if this will stop reflections on the glass - "hidden from GI" might fix otherwise!
If you ever care to share those trees mate you can father my children! Would like to play with the trunk a bit it seems it needs something a bit more scaled from something, sticks or wire? Not sure!
More images mate!!!!!!!

Btw...are you doing this in studio or thru some plugins?
Just a couple of exporting issues & hope you can help.

Hi Richard,
tx for all the comments and praisal. There is a lot to improve but I am trying to keep these kind of images done in a day including rendering. This is low budget visualisation working with first sketches of a building. Lateron we will make more realistic images based on these ones.I have been sick just now and I might upload some more images this weekend.
I will think about uploading these trees but I can't promise anything. But really, get Modo, and you can easily make them yourself. I heard Rhino is also going OSX.
I use Studio to render my SU models. But as soon as the new plugin is ready by JDHill I will probably render these images straight from SU. Also a good reason to keep trees low polygon.

I like it. It has a certain "whimsy" and yet presents exactly what it needs to present.
Glass? Well yeah, glass does funny things. I found this out when I used to work in the film and video world. I really don't see anything wrong here and in fact, find the reflections interesting.

Here some other tests and models we made with SU-Maxwell combo. The trees with the fine branches are from Evermotion added in Studio.

Francois!
Mate I think the ones you finally settled on is just spot on! I like the winter trees too but think the sky then may be critical!
The cars also I'd suggest might just that bit more aged, like reused or shelf sitting for some time as if replicating their vintage. I reckon you could map some very good roughs (what they need out of SU > PS > brush > SU paint back. and these will really pump it up!
There is a thread on the MR forums that sheik had a few cool trees started out of sponge and they were looking cool and I think a few examples of use of plexiglass, though mate your trees kill it. Looking at the first image I do agree a tad that the tree does catch the eye, it is beautiful - it will. Maybe just ensure they dont precede the building or at least more entourage!

I like images 2 and 6 the most. Nice focus on the buildings and great lighting
