SU7 + Vray 1.6 (Beta) + Cs6

Attempt at improvement in post-production

[LeMisanthrope]

Nice work ... except maybe the forgetting of the reflection of the sky in the rack in the center of the image.

...some areas maybe a little too saturated for me.
But congratulations, this is very realistic.

Can you tell us the rendering time and the resolution?

[ACastro]

Hi LeMisanthrope

Yes, in fact
but in true, now my big concern was to get improve a little more the "post-production" in CS6!....and yes, i also agree in saturation, also is not yet as I want to ... among so many other things, something to be corrected in the next!

about rendering, i do not want to mislead, but I think it will have been anything between 6 and 8 hours, and the resolution here it was reduced to 2048 x 1536.

Thanks a lot for your help !

best regards

SU7 + Vray 1.60 + PS6 - Study and improvement

My thanks to "Cgtextures"; "3d-land.net"; Ramon Zancanaro; Tiago Crisostomo and all friends of 3dWarehouse for sharing textures and objects included
in the scene, and all those who have helped me directly or indirectly with the sharing his knowledge.

[LeMisanthrope]

Wow... Crazy rendering !
Just a question : The camera seems to distort the chair at left or it's deliberately like you want ?
Very very very nice work.

[ACastro]

Hi LeMisanthrope,

was not deliberate, I think it is optical illusion, since in principle only gives that feeling in the chair!
Thanks a lot for your incentive!

Nice work again... hmm, you are not a human.

One trick... just change your cleaner.

I like that last one a lot! Reminds me of my grandmother's kitchen, with all the cluttered pots and pans (by the way two of them are hanging the wrong way round and the lid would fall off) and with the black-and-white tiles and visible pvc electric pipe...
She would usually have a pot (or several) with utensils sitting about close to the stove somewhere (sth like this http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/keukengerei-233222.jpg)

Also, although I love the look, it would be rather odd to have two sinks but nowhere to put the washed-up stuff next to it. Plus there will usually be a cute little curtain under the sink to hide the ugly pipes

What is the thing in the windowsill?

All that said; I love the images; the semi-black-and-white one best.

[andybot_cg]

wow, amazing texturing! How did you do the circular brushed metal reflections on the steel pans? Looks great!

[ACastro]

Hi

@marthamaatkamp

Thank you for your comment!

The only pan with lid, is one that is visible, and the tubes in truth are not pvc but metal .... happens that as can see and well, in the attempt to put a different reflection ended up be not very well obtained (well observed) and stays that plastic sensation.

about the object, i also tried something like what you suggested, but time is short and these works are for learning and leisure… it is amazing how thousands of objects existing in websites, always seem to lack the one we need ...

about the two basins, the theme had with reference to an ancient kitchen of the "Palace of Monserrate" (in Sintra/ Portugal) This was how who were there /is at the location, and the place for washed objects was elsewhere .

the other thing on the window sill , is another sink in stone! I also was intrigued , but could not determine what the purpose, because it was forbidden to the public access, since this is a kitchen 1830 want to believe that would be to throw scraps from the kitchen ... but require or justify the existence of two sinks, but do not I insert the hands in the fire.

One more time thanks a lot for your incentive


@LeMisanthrope
Thanks a lot for your words of incentive


@andybot_cg
thanks a lot for your kind words

The texture is a fake one anisotropic, made with a texture of this kind, is more or less visible, because if went caused by a light, it would have different directions

Oh i saw this post on facebook.
It's a great job. It seems that now you are also one of those guys that make incredible visualizations. Congratulations for that!
or is it because of the vray improvements? hehe.
Just kidding. Happy new year.
