Hi all


Here's my latest pic.
This is just a practise pic, no commercial stuff here.

Enrico => I hope you'll forgive me : your "Urban Apartment" topic highly inspired me, I hope it won't show too much. Anyway there's nothing to worry about : I'm extremely far from your maestria !!!

I also read your "making of" and it helped me with new techniques (or stuff that I'd forgotten).
So, many many thanks for your tips and your great work.

To all => I hope you like it, comments and critics welcome, as always.
Other renders from different cam angles will come later.

Thanks

Very nice ! Well done
The only thing that bugs me : The fire, it looks too cheap compared to all the beautifulness of the environment; but that's just a detail.

Hi, as I can see in your screenshot you have so many slots. When I import an obj-file I have only a few slots. How can I assign the slots in 3ds Max?

Thanks for your reply Ice

Indeed there are 2 major downfalls to this picture :
- the fire - next time I'll try a different technique, but I don't know quite how right now
- the marble texture - I admit : that's PURE LAZINESS from me - it's way too repetitive, I should have improved it before applying it

Below is another Camera Angle.

Hi Cashbird,
I use Blender, and I've never used Max.
I automatically get one slot per material that's in my scene.
Is that what you mean ?

very noisy!
as metal chandelier
glass doors are not transparent
fire in the fireplace. not realistic

Hi Madcoo

your apartment is beautiful also, Congrats

Cheers

Hi guys! Thanks for your replies.


@ Elvissuperstar007 =>

very noisy!

=> I wanted to let it cook longer, but at some point there was very little difference between - say - 5000 sppx and 6000 sppx

as metal chandelier glass doors are not transparent

glass doors are transparent (have a look at the ones on the right-hand side). Maybe my specularity value is too high?

and regarding the chandelier, the end of the lightbulbs is not transparent - here's the reference pic :

fire in the fireplace. not realistic

=> Yes indeed... It was the first time I made a fireplace (with fire in it). I think part of the problem is the emission value -> it looks like the fire is in front of the glass, not behind.
