      Interior 1.jpgHi all, this is my first go at interior rendering. I designed an extension for a friend and did the interior design also. It is not perfect but heading in the right direction I think.The render time was 14 mins with my CPU.

      Cheers

        As a first attempt its very good. The most obvious things that need work are some of the materials. The cushions and fireplace surround for example are too diffuse/flat, and its worth checking that none of the colours in the textures are completely saturated. Check them in the material editor and slide back the saturation level. The other material that jumps put is the wood grain on the tall end panel. The texture image for that needs cropping to remove the white lines which highlight the 'tiling' effect. Woodgrains are one the hardest resource to find, unless you buy a texture pack.
        Don't forget to bevel as many sharp corners as you can for a more realistic look. That can be done in some render engines like Twilight, so you don't have to model the bevels, it is done in the material. What render engine did you use?

          Hi Nick, thanks for your advice. All points noted, I was aware of most of them but run out of energy. The render has no post processing and is just a render output only. The edge of the materials will be fixed in Photoshop when I am happy with the render. Its amazing how you can play about for hours fine tuning it is quite exhausting. I also thought the fire looked a bit intense so I will tone that down a bit. The plugin is called Raylectron (V4.95). Prior versions made me feel like a beta tester but I am really happy with it now and am excitedly waiting for version 5 to come out. I do not understand Trace depth, does a higher number mean a better render because as it bounces more times?

            I can clearly see NoEmotion virus winking behind the left pillow.

                  Interior 1.jpgHi I have played around with the render engine to try and improve on the first render. One problem was the fake looking fire which was a flat image. I made some simple 3d shapes and made most surfaces black. Then I made some of the smaller faces burnt orange and khaki and made then light emitters. I think its a big improvement. Comments and criticism welcome.
