Lookin good but those low plants stand out. I know those particular ones dont have maps on them so i usually twist the colour slider to a darker green.

The final exteriors look a lot better than the 1st ones you posted! I love the interiors, it looks awesome! The reflection on the glass partition in the 2nd interior shot is a bit distracting, but I'll still give you 10 points out of 10!

Kind Regards,

Hi Steve, looks good. I need to agree with Jonferimonic, low plants needs adjust. Why not a similar green of others? Just a PS will be faster and with good result.

Regards.

thanks for all your comments guys - and I'm sure you're all correct about the greens in the plants.......but I'm colour blind......and green is not a strong colour for me!!.....I do my best though..

cheers

Amazing work! Nearly perfect balance of detail. I am not too fond of the fence material or the green of the aforementioned gorundcover, but these are very minor distractions when considering the overall quality. Hopefully your client appreciates the quality!

a couple of people have asked for the stripped down interior scene, complete with the final render settings, so here it is - hope it helps in some way

cheers steve, interesting to see your approach using the global mult to boost all the sample settings. I normally let the AA do the work, but good to see your method.

I wonder, did you try with a vray sky and use the lights at the windows as portals? Was it just not giving you the right light levels?

Thanks again.

I just wasn't getting the right level of light that worked for me.

The finals took a little over 3 hours at 3500 wide.
