hello,
I'm trying to make a night view.
This is my first result, how to make it look more realistic?
Especially from the point of view of lighting, I need to create a set photograph?
thanks
Night shot

Most of my successful night renders were actually twilight (15-30 mins before dark) ...
I'm not sure if everyone will agree, but i think the result is more believable. Think about this; unless its a rural property no building is likely to be set in complete darkness (apart from its own artificial lighting) ... Agree?

night lighting is not the absence of light, but rather a situation where the light is different =)
from what we used to see, because of our 'inbuilt' white balance.
Through the lens everything is much more simple. To get the most of situation like this take a look at this mood board I've gathered for myself in pinterest http://www.pinterest.com/glimps/blue-yellow/
in my eyes You just have to find a nice mix between natural Blue & artificial yelow =) it's nothing magical - use HDR or even flat Blue & set some interior/exterior artificial lighting. Keep eye on Gama, contrast to have good readability and that's it.
This color mix is widely used by artists including architecture photographers, visualisers..

This is the result even if not yet definitive ... what do you think?

this is my result with night renders in octane
Sky is photoshoped, use lots of interior lights of different colors (sample from a night time photograph)
For the exterior use a hdr of dusk and play with exposure, i also used a lot of ies lights to light the balconies.

I feel that if you want a more realistic render that your building needs to be modelled more. The corners are all very sharp and there isn't any sort of texture on them. So adding a small amount of texture and rounding the corners a tad will help it. The lighting is getting better though, I just find that the model is distractingly sharp.
- Actually after looking at it again, maybe it's just the lack of texture and smoothness of it. Not too sure.

Can you tell me how much of Vram did the scene take?
