House in Belgium is a project for a client. I am not the architect but I did help some with the design process.
I focused a lot on the materials and the overall composition of the images. I was going to add furniture inside but I didn't have time so maybe next time!
Not much post processing on the first image besides the lady walking and some color correction but I added some fog using a zdepth pass in the second one. I had some problems with that because octane rendered my environment(HDRI) in black. In a zdepth pass the gradient should be from black (closest to camera) to white (furthest from camera). This was the case except that my sky was black so I had to paint white over that in photoshop and therefore didn't get the exact effect I was looking for not to mention the extra time it took me to 'fix'. If anyone has any suggestions for how to work around this problem that'd be great!
I used forest pack for the trees, grass, and leaves. I also used the wood generator script (for the wood), and Ivy generated for the ivy.
Rendered in PMC on two GTX 690s. I forgot how long it took but it wasn't short. Probably 3-4 hours for the second image (1920*1080px)

Except for the slightly floating leaves in the street-view, I really like the images.
Best,

great images! where did you get the ivy plant just on top of the couple talking?
Hi manos and thank you!
So to explain quite quickly it is not a face with alpha opacity. It actually is scattered geometry.
I did this using the forest pack pro plugin by Itoo Software. You don't need this specific plugin as there are other plugins that can scatter instances without blowing up the number of polygons in your scene.
Hope this helps
