looking good... R2J2

I must agree with Psy, there is something missing.
Maybe you should try to give it more of realism by not making it so perfect, what i mean is that you should add or modify elements to give add the building some age...

some suggestions:
- I think you should use Vray materials, you get very different results.
- HDRI from a winter exterior (try this one:

- Tweak lighting, perhaps area shadows would make it more realistic.

of course, those are only suggestions.

cheers!

for instance, the shadows all have the same depth of darkness. there doesnt seem to be any darker shadows, they all have the same shade which rings wrong to me.

thanks guys I'll have a look into that.
the job was rushed so the lighting wasn't worked on that much,
Psy at the moment I'm wondering how I could get some differance in the shadows without adding extra lights?

Minimum I haven't got into lighting outdoor secens yet with HDRI, I'll check it out now, thanks for the link. the shadows were area but it is hard too see.
