RE: Kerkythea - setting up lights/scenes/materials
I have tried another one (this time with lights)...but I feel like still something is missing...something which make this realistic. What settings you use to get a good photorealistic renders? What is the most important - lights? Besides I have a problem with transparent material (glass, transparent plastics)...

RE: Kerkythea - setting up lights/scenes/materials
Hi tridem
Thanks for giving some advices. Maybe you know any good tutorial showing step by step whole rendering process (settings, lights, materials, scenes)? Such easily absorbed tutorial would be something for greenhorn like me...Just one question, while I was playing with lights, shadows, settings I usualy get overexposed image, or too dark, or something - I got sick off it...Is there any universal method/procedure you use or follow so that your works always look at least good (I mean at least on accpetable level) or is it just trail-end-error method (especially with lights and scenes) before the render looks OK?
Are there any interesting and easily absorbed articles/tutorial you could recommend? -
Kerkythea - setting up lights/scenes/materials
Hi all
First of all let me write couple words about me and my 3d experience. I started to use sketchup + kerkythea arround 2 months ago. Despite I learned modelling in Sketchup enough to get the satysfying results, I am still not happy with renders I make (I use Kerkythea). I am running out of ideas how to correctly set up the lights, scene, material in Kerkythea to get a nice (realistic) image. Can anyone help? How you set up materials/textures - you do it in Sketchup firstly, then just export to KT? Same with the lights - do you put the lights directly in Sketchup and then just export it to Kerkythea, or you just set it up under KT (no presets in Sketchup)? The same with scene. Create it in Sketchup? Or maybe is it just a matter of trial and error method (playing with lights, scenes, adjusting materials) to get nice (realistic) render?
To many question probably - to make this easier I am uploading some of my recent work - image only. I am still not satisfied with results. Maybe because I turn off the sun, use the background color - white, added ground (set white/grey colour). Each shelf has a price strip (plastic) but what I get is a terrible noise on some of shelf instead of nice transparent pcv plastic.
Anyway, thanks for any advice which help me to improve this render...
