Hi Bobby,
This update looks really better, but I think you can reduce a little constrast and your AO on walls (thats vrdirty?)

Regards.

Living Room

Although I am happy with his image I am having issues with lights. I have to turn off my sun to get lights to show, but at the highest intensity. The lights you see over the counter will not turn in no matter what I do. What am I doing wrong. The lights over the counter are from http://www.treddi.com/forum/index.php?autocom=lumina and were modeled at a different unit so I opened the model up in max and allowed max to rescale the model to my system units. Would this me the issue?

[Jonferimonic]

I get the same problem sometimes. Heres 2 options:
1, If your using vraycam your lights will need to be a really high intensity to show up.
2, The part of the model which is to emit light could be too small to be seen, regardless of light intensity. To overcome this you can either scale up the bulb or put a vraylight in its place or both.

The scene seems to be exposed to the exterior sunlight. If you turn off the sun, then expose the scene using only the interior lights, then afterwards turn on the sun, the interior lights should show, but the exterior daylight will be very very bright.

I usually fake it, and crank up the interior light multipliers.

Here is an update with client changes.

[Jonferimonic]

Good but you'll get a lot of comments regarding the BG, it doesnt match your lighting anymore, it did before though. I think it needs to be overexposed to match the brightness of the sunlight which is hitting the wall. However, judging by the sun direction most of those trees would be in shadow?

BG

All in the details . I'll take a look. The client requested I remove the curtains, which now reveals the outside. I was going to play with the background... to sunny and green for a fire to be inside, but I dare not change anything since the client is happy.

Interior

Working hard, but I don't know if I am going in the correct direction. This render time was 12hrs, which seems extremely high. I had to crank things up to get rid of noise in the shadows. I am having issues with the shadow line at the wall/ceiling intersections.

[simmsimaging]

It's looking quite a bit more realistic. Nice work IMO.

Interior

Thanks, I agree. The client is more concerned about colors then realistic I am afraid. They give me these little color samples and they expect some kind of match. It is getting a little frustrating. The wood floor sample was one color... how in the world can I make a realistic floor using one color?

I'm loving it, especially the floor, timer beams and counter top, think the lack of disp of firepalce/heart and couch could be tweaked for the better ,
nice to see an interior from you,
gr8 work
