Chair in the Sun

[Seraph135]

Hi everyone!

Here is a render I did for fun over the holiday weekend. I probably should have been out in the sun, but I had fun re-creating it instead...I'm such a geek...anyways, Enjoy!

Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

I like the image and especially rooftops, are these all modeled seperately or how did you do that?

nice roof, how did u modeled that?
is it geometry or displacement ?

Thanks for the comments.

The roof tiles are modeled, the stucco is displaced and I used a V-Ray camera.

where is there a vray camera?

Really nice... just a few comments, if you don't mind that could push it a little further IMHO....

1- the shadow seems a little off. It may be too soft, or too hard... I think it could be a little softer... basically it looks artificial right now.
2- the chair could use more resolution in the fabric, I can see some faces which is distracting.
3- the fractal pattern on the gutter looks bad to me. It makes it look like some cheap plastic. I would use some real textures (not procedural) to give it some dirt and/or grime near the edges.
4- I would paint in some dirt near the edges of the floor... the general texture looks great, it just needs some edge detailing.
5- handrail looks too regular... it could use some more design, and maybe some beveling.

like I said... all good, simple feeling... looks and feels like summer in southern europe.

Thanks for the comments. This render is a recreation of my apartment balcony.

Cpnichols...

1. The shadows were actually a bit sharper in real life.
2. I agree completely
3. I used a photo grime map of pealing paint on the gutter...NO PROCEDURALS cause I don't like them. I'll work on making it better though.
4. I agree
5. Modeled as closely to the original as possible. Design wise they are pretty bland, but I'm just being true to the real thing.

I appreciate the help. I'll work on making those things better!
