Interior Core Area of A Strip Mall : NEED ADVICE

[DaForce]

WOW... looks alot better!!

Well done

[Ryan_Chiong]

a little spec bloom will be nice,

a clean white skylight looks strange. you might want to add a little dirt or transparency.

Spec Bloom

I rendered at a higher resolution, made some suble details.
The render for today


im not sure if i like the spec bloom or not.

Comments and Critiques are more than welcome and much appreciated.
Thanks,

Wow, much better than your first! Congrats!

[chris-x//]

hey, much better, some more thoughts though :

1) the specular impact on the right pillar is way too strong
2) Add some sky, but not a busy one and thus some glas up there for some reflections
3) If you have time add some stuff or maps in the shops following what is soldin them.
4) feels a bit cold ?

Well if you have time :P but much much better work than first image, good job !

Wanted to make some quick and dirt photoshop to express my ideas, hope you don't mind I touched your image, just to help you

[DaForce]

WOW!! What an improvement over the first render.
Now that you can see some sky it brightens the place up so much gives it a more real feeling.

Well done.

looking nice now

[Ryan_Chiong]

yeah

that was what i was thinking, a sky beyond that clean white skylight.
there is something about that chair,... it looks massive and very heavy.

[deflix]

much better dude!

[CGzero]

Gilpo - Thanks Man, still moving along. Hopefully i can make it ever better

Chris-x// - Woah, thats awsome chris. You've got some mad photoshop skills. I like the changes. There is a sky in the pick, but the upper glass thing is a type of ribbed platic that is suppose to glow. It is a little see through but not much. Kinda like looking trough a shower door.
Right now im adding some more details and modeling to the scene, including some stuff in the shops. I have untill wendsday, i may still add changes afterward though. : D Thanks you soooo much, this helps a lot!

Ryan_Chiong - Yeah i agree, im changing the chairs a little and there color, i dont think i have time to model new ones but maybe later.

Thanks everyone, i'll hopefully have a new updated one up sometime later today.

Final Image Rendering

Hi guys,
Sorry for the late response, for some reason the forums where down.
Here is the final image that was used. I still may do changes and
adjustments if it really helps the picture look more real.
C&C is more than welcome

well, this has come a long way since i first saw it!
Good work!
Congratulations

Great job! I noticed this, though, that the wood beams seem to just end in space. They are such contrast that your eyes go straight to them. Are they supposed to end like that? They would probably connect to one of the columns right?

[CGzero]

ene.xis - Thank you very much, I have learned many new amazing things from you guys. I hope to post more interesting works in the future more frequently. This has been so much fun.

phildlight - lol, my architect likes to do that kinda thing. The metal pillars actually are holding up the gluelamb beams which are holding up a plastic ribed skylight. I think it is mostly just his type of style.

Thank You so much everybody, your help means the world to me
