I didn't want to replicate the scene, just to catch the mood, so the model is not accurate. The truth is the result doesn't match the quality of the real pic so I posted it in WIP

perfect!

the water waves are too big, try to scale them to simulate that blurriness

In ps add some red in color balance. Your sky is blue the reference tends to blu violet

for me the 'original photo' looks pretty much CG but it seems to be real:

in the past we had renders that look like photos now we have photos that look like renders...

The design feels very synthetic and the open space is missing. Prison pool is a nice description, matej :)

Prison pool lol! :lol:
Thank you for finding the whole house, I've just saw the pic I posted and I liked it for it's simplicity. There may be no open space in the pool yard but I think it could be a very quiet and calm spot in a dense area.

Looking really good.

as above, the 'bump' on the pool photo is tiny and cause by gentle breeze on pool surface - turn your pool bump way down till it gives you the blurry effect.
