Overal view is very good. But you should use different materials on walls, ceilings and cabinets. I mean white color. Now it looks, that you only placed a white color, and everything looks like made from colored plaster. And one more thing: in reality it is impossible to make perfect wall, it allways has some scratches and etc. So I recommend using plaster textures on walls, ceiling, and diffrent textures on furniture
Thanks for the comments. If this were personal work, I would definitely take more consideration on the wall texture as well as the cabinets, but again, I don't have a large budget for most of these, so I usually have to make them as real as I can given the time and budget. Also, I don't have much say in the selection of materials and finishes as I'm not the one designing these. They are also being used to market projects or sell a client on a particular design so adding imperfections is something the client generally doesn't want to see.

I agree with cuttingedge. I also agree with the window comments. The big thing I have an issue with are the pendant lights. Nicely modeled but the finish is also a bit matted. Add some reflection and it would be killer.
Thanks! The finish on the pendants is actually pretty close to the product. It's supposed to more of an aged bronze finish and not something that has a more crisp reflection.

Lighting is very well done! If Realism is your aim, try to work on the white material a little bit. The white is so uniformly matte. In reality all objects has some reflective property. Try to add some fresnel to the cabinets. The ceiling and wall are normally finished a little less glossy than the cabinetry. The other thing is to pay more attention to the fine details of the model. If you observe the real cabinet door. The corners wont be this sharp at all. even a 2or 3 mm round corner treatment will increase the realism. Other materials are great. Generally its fantastic!
Thanks for the comments! I agree with a lot of what you're saying, however, I typically don't have the budget to spend time rounding edges of cabinets and putting the finer details into the rendering. Same goes for the reflection on the cabinets. There actually is a reflection, however, I had to tone it down to speed up render times.

Thanks for the comments, guys!

Very nice! This a real project? If so show us the progress. Love seeing SU come to life.
Yes, this is a real project. Hopefully the client will send some photos when it's completed. If they do, I'll be sure to post them.

Wow. Nice, clean and bright. The only thing I see that makes me raise an eyebrow is the placement of the two windows above the cabinetry. They are placed low relative to the top of the cabinets. Just my personal preference, but they would look better centered or high. Otherwise, I'd love to have a kitchen like that.
Thanks! I agree with you about the windows, they need to be moved up. If the client makes any changes, I'll definitely do that.

Here's a kitchen rendering I just finished up. The project was modeled in Sketchup, rendered with Vray and finished up in photoshop.

This is a quick project I did last night for a beach restaurant in Florida. The project is made up of recycled shipping containers, reclaimed wood and Kalwall panels. I hope you like it!

That flat horizontal cornice on the porch gable doesn't look good, in my not too humble opinion. It lacks the level of detail found on the rest of the house.
Thanks for the input.

@daniel said:

nice image. You need to work on the brick arches over the garage doors. I wish my lawn was that nice!
Yeah, I didn't have time to map each brick to follow the arch. Know of a trick to make that easier?

Nice sharp picture. I like the shadows, curtains and windows. Grass is nice and effective, but so perfect. What was your grass technique?
Thanks for the comments! The grass was photoshopped for this one.

Here's my latest rendering done for a custom home builder. I used Sketchup for modeling, Vray for rendering and photoshop for the post work. Please let me know what you think!
