disgusting panoramic

[Da_elf]

Remind me never to try a panoramic again. i didnt have the software that would stitch together my images properly into a panoramic properly so i had to try it in photoshop. not to mention the render was extreamly difficult to match since i had so many bloody vanising points hehe. i ended up having to render the best match i could get then playing with the corners of the image to warp it. by no means one of my best but here we go

few things that will make it better :
1.there is topless palm on the right ,fix it or loose it.
2.topless wood poll on the center of the image - you can copy the palm right to it and cover it.
3. right above that pol you can fix the sky better.
4. good job on blending the road with cg road , i would use some concrete texture for the pavements stones (don't know how you call them - the border of the pavment - outline it by 20 cm to create those stones.)
4.5 you can also add some texture to the pavment it self.
5.those cars looks unrealistic you may wanna check lowpolygon3d.com cars , they are cheap, low poly and looks much better (i converted them into vray proxy and i use them on animation as well).

thats about it ...

I would assume that this isnt entirely finished yet?
Just a few comments on the rendering if I may, As I scroll slowly left to right,
it looks a bit like some surreal world sandwiched between reality. Aside from
the points raised by gili, you might want to reconsider the current blurry anti-
aliasing algorithm used - perhaps a sharper one like mitnet or catmull might
be more approriate to match the tone of the real pic. The clients might not
like some wear and tear but I think a little dirt in there could hide the
artificialness and give you a more matching feel with
the real environment.

Just my 2 yen,

Well, in the future if you're ever looking for pano stitching software, PTGui works great and is very inexpensive.

What kind of camera do you have? The software that came with my Canon has a better stitcher than the one that ships with PS CS2...

good job considering! ha haa
that blue lambo creeped into another of your scenes

From a little recent testing the best stitcher out there is PTGui for me. It worked like a charm, and definately produced the best results (final output was 17k spherical in the testing case). It ate RealViz for breakfast :P

Oh and it's like 60 Bucks if i recall right

Back to topic . Great Job so far. Besides the mentioned points.

its a crappy hp camera im using. the stitching was more or less just warping each image in photoshop to make things line up. 10 different shots. also some sign removal in the image. it was just a pain in the butt and done in a day.

Hi Da-elf, now I'm sure you are crazy hehe stich with your own little hands I though that we are all too lazy to do it like that but no !
Good and generous job there, good luck

I use an inexpensive King Pano Head for my DSLR and use PTGUI for this stuff. Autopano http://www.autopano.net/ looks brilliant too!

looks good elf, the building looks like it is lit from underneath. The balconies have a lot of reflected light
