If you do not want us to publish your art, please mention it in your post clearly. (put a very red small diagonal cross in the top left corner of the image)
Any images already published on the gallery will be removed if the original author asks us to do so.
We recommend placing your credits on the images so you benefit from the exposure too, and use a minimum image width of 1200 pixels, and pathtracing or PMC. Thanks for your attention, The OctaneRender Team.

very nice, love the colour mixing that is happening, the falloff is a bit too strong - looks more like velvet than cotton.
The pure white coming from outside suggests there should be some aperture bleed happening around the curtains - which would be done post, so not sure if you wanted to just show a pure render here.
very good though!
Any reason why you chose PT instead of PMC? I find PMC is a lot more accurate for interior lighting.
Hi jmfowler, for me Pathtracing renders faster and give nice result for a scene such as this. There was not really significant benefit from using PMC. If had much more lighting, detailed caustics and lots more glossy/specular materials, I would definitely use PMC as it was born to that. Also your note about the bleeding from the curtains.
I have white diffuse material behind the curtains which is why you see all white from the window and no reflected red/purple color.

I really like the images overall, but two things, one don't use filtering, It gets too blurry. Second, do not compress the images as jpg! This forum supports .png, and jpeg is really noticeable.
And maybe some levels to brighten it up.
