comments welcome

Great work! Nice amount of detail and it looks very real! I like the dirt on the (don't know the real name of the 3 white cylinders) capacitors? The lighting is great, what is it?

thanks for the comment. the lighting just a single target direct along with the vray environment override. i've been slow to adapt to the vray sun but i'm starting to like it more and more. the white cylinders are actually the transformers.

hi elf...this is for litigation visualization. showing this before the case settled would be a huge no no

Amazing work, it's hard to believe this level of detail for a litigation case, I thought they where more into the pre-viz stuff, I did a quick mock up of an intersection for my attorney when I was hit on my bicycle by an errant driver, but it looked more like something from Marios Brothers.
I can only imagine what the case was about - some poor bastard probably got toasted.

Great work, I really like the lighting, I find it very hard to get these kind of hard shadow from the sun system, did you use overshoot for the falloff ?

aaaahhhh. i see. cool.

hi adam. the plaintiffs (those suing the people with the money) usually have a limited budget and thus generally have lower quality visualization. i would say there is more plaintiff animation out there than defense and i could see why you might think that. defense visualization, particularly for multi million dollar suits, looks alot more refined for the most part. they see it as spending money to save money.
