Bank Interior

[svittori]

We do mostly bank interiors and design for the banking industry.
I started using VRay after I could not find the right solution for our GI needs and since Lightscape got killed. Vray is great, but I miss the manuals and more tutorials. I make progress, but please let me know your coments. Your coments are the best tutorials.
Thanks
Stefan

Looks good! Carpet needs a little work and the steel material but otherwise good stuff.

Hey nice work Stefan.
Good overall lighting.

Some comments:
1. If that is sunlight coming through the glass, then this light source should be much brighter than interior artificial lights.

2. Your image seems to lack specular highlights and relflections.
I would suggest boosting the RGB levels on your self-illum material to cause blow outs in the light source and this combined with low level reflection will give you nice highlights.

But otherwise, nice image.

I find all your colors too saturated, especially the wood and the red floor part.

I agree about the sunlight, it should be brighter.

Could you tell me what you would do with the carpet and steel? Dman3d?

You are right I have to make it brighter

2. Your image seems to lack specular highlights and relflections.

That's what I think it is when I get the feeling something is missing in my scene, you ae right? Could you explain it a little more, dejaVu?
What should I do, or some settings for the selfilluminated material.
Thanks

I reduced the saturation for the wood allready, but what makes the map so saturated in the scene. In Photoshop the map is already pale and a lot desaturated? Thanks flipside.

The carpet comment is mainly about the tiling. I have found most of the stock carpet textures out there to be a bit small so I either take new photos or tile and existing one in photoshop and hand correct the tiled areas and save it back out, that way you have a larger texture area to work with.

Or -

Mix 2 materials with noise, this can often do the trick as well.

Just my $0.02 but I am sure one of the whiz-bang guys around here have another way.
