Yep, it seems like Normal Displacement (modifier applied to the geometry in Blender) is the best way to get most of that kind of texture.
It makes the number of triangles go right up, but -hey- no pain no gain
Cheers !
Exterior render : need help with my settings

I remember having a presentation by the guy who did the Gladiator film at the Mill here in London, and basically he said the first and most important thing
about 'photo-realistic' rendering in cgi was detail in the model, that above everything else, I later saw an article he'd done on the web but can never find it now

Absolutely.
One of the first things I learnt when I started, was to model as closely as possible to reality.
=> Even if i THINK that I know a real object well enough to be able to model it without a reference photo, i still use a reference photo - and I always end up noticing that I couldn't have modelled it nicely without that reference...

Hi Madcoo,
your problem is in the camera settings. You should try wide lens.
Your achitecture will not be flat and uninteresting, and you get more blue sky to your view.
Narrow lens in arch viz. look like that it is home of dwarfs
))
Common mistake is verticals, they should be straight.
So i hope that it help you.
all the best

Hi Jan,
Many thanks for your helpful reply.
Indeed I had a problem with my verticals on this pic (Sdwhitton earlier posted "your target should be at the same height as your camera height")
This is very helpful as I don't know the "rules" for archviz...
So I hope that little by little I'll get there !
When you say "wide lens" does this mean going to my FoV setting and lowering it ?
For my latest indoor work (see "white kitchen and bottles" topic) I lowered it and I was much happier with the result, as a setting of 30-35 tends to greatly lessen geometric deformation.
I also put my camera at around 1.60 meter from the ground in exterior scenes now, this way it is set up at the same level as the human eye.
Many thanks for your helpful reply.

28mm lens is usual for 'outside' which is around 66 degrees from memory
24mm for inside, forgotten what that one is, in the 70's would think
