OK bumpmap worked very well and looks really nice. With dirt i've got no glue at the moment

Great work Jo

Could I suggest that you consider showing some wear and tear (dirt) on the tram. I think it would blend in better with the scene. I am not sure how this could be done. Maybe others might have ideas.

Mike

Yes that was my idea too, but I also didn't know how to do it. I thought about the bumpmap of Gaieus' "Fachwerkhaus" that I've seen here a few days ago. The tram looks to plane and to clean.

wow. I'm always totally impressed of your work.

Yes IES would be the next lesson for me.

I'm loving it playing around with the lights. I've just added many flourescent lights and a new spotlight at the neightbour room.

here's another render...

"please keep distance, large curves rash"

don't know if google translated right, I think rash is the wrong word.

update

I just played around with the spotlights, edited the emitter and turned the direction. Now it comes pretty close to reality.

Me too. At the moment I have a tableclothing problem

here's the brand new render with perfect TWL- lights.

A question... Can I ask you if you play games on the computer you're also using to render models with...??
Reason for asking is simple... Since most of your renders seem over exposed, I tend to believe that your monitor is calibrated very dark...

No I'm not gaming but the lights in that room are really very strong. I will show a picture after the reconstruction is finshed.

update, have to work on the details

thank you so much. that helped a lot. I'm going to update the scene as soon as posible. I played a bit with the light. 2000 was to dark. I setted the light to 3000 and it looked great. Many things are clear to me now.

The wood and glas materials are looking funny. I like the trees.

OK, Faces are reversed.

Now I tried to adjust the light settings but I'm not really satisfied. I enclosed the scene for you to look for the settings.

turn on the 'monochrome' face style. the white ones are good, the light-blue ones are bad...
When this kind of stuff is important in a model, I like to make the back-color a bright red... this can be changed in the styles/edit/faces dialog.

This was very usefull. Here's the result:

Wow! I didn't knew that plugin. that is exactly what I'm looking for. I just started to download it.

Hmm. Yes and no. First of all thank you for yout support. It helped because now I know where the problem is but i don't have a solution right now. The light theme is very complex, I will need some weeks to understand that but at first I have to turn around the faces. How can I see if a face is on the right site or not?

and another one...
