It looks like it is not rendered fully, or with low settings, can you post render settings ? Result is like it is saved at the beginning of progressive rendering or something like that. Try turning off interactive and progressive rendering, and set irradiance map + light cache under global illumination, CPU rendering.

Hi. I have a question, or maybe a suggestion about materials in material editor.

Is it possible to group materials in editor so that I don't have materials of one object sorted by name, but instead to have them grouped in something like object sub folder ?
Kind of like Photoshop grouping of layers.

For now I do it only by naming materials so they are in order, but i think it would be very useful option when we have models with hundreds of materials.

Maybe someone wrote plug-in that i don't know about, or in version 3 ?
I use version 2 V-Ray.

Hmm.. weird,i was positive that wall was not single surface. What happens if u check View - hidden geometry ? Or can you right click on wall, go to texture- position and see if it is stretched ?

Higher values of HSph subdivisions in irradiance map give smoother results, and maybe you can, in car paint material, raise material reflection subdivisions for same reason.

Hi Orei.

Im not sure, but to me it looks like walls of your house are divided into triangles and for some reason texture in one triangle is stretched. Maybe try manual texture correction.

About car, could be some issue with material or maybe you need higher hsph subdivisions for smoother results in vray.

Great work !

Hi, nice initiative to do something like that. My collection of bookmarks looks almost same but i found few new pages worth exploring. Here are some more suggestions:

Hi, i had same question http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=322&t=44445
I don't know if anything changed with new beta.

Thanks. Very helpful, and nice of you to share.

Thanks Pilou, i found one very useful plugin in tuts you sent, and yes u are right, it is torsio chair from Bosnian wood furniture manufacturers Artisan http://www.artisan.ba/
They have great designs, all made from solid wood and hand crafted.

Hello.

Im having some trouble accurately modeling and texturing this chair, so it came to my mind that there is a lot real life woodworkers with great skills in SU modeling on this forum.
My question is, how would you go about modeling this chair ?
