    Compositing tuts needed

    Does anyone have any good links for some compositing tips/tuts in PS for architectural renderings, interior and exterior? I use Max and Vray, and do post in PS...I understand and know how to use the VFB and generate various render elements, but am not quite sure how to use them using layers/layermasks when in PS to control reflections, highlights, etc. I've been messing around with it, and have found some information online, but I'm sure there's better and more professional way of doing things than what I'm doing now. A typical PS comp for me would include the diffuse/beauty pass, specular, reflections, shadows, and I'm still tinkering with some of the others. Any ideas? What do you guys do? I've see some amazing renderings here and everyone is always saying "do it in Post"...any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance!

    you're suppose to post tuts here, not ask for them.

    I'm not a big fan of "fixing" renders in post. Sometimes it takes longer, but I prefer to just get the results I want straight out from render.

    Nevertheless, Spine3D has an architectural photoshop tutorial in the 101 edition of 3D World Mag. There are also some other VRay releated arch tuts in same issue of the mag. Hope this helps you.
    Kind Regards,

          that's funny, cause I'm not a fan of spending unneeded time trying to fix something in the render, that could be fixed in photoshop in 1/10 of the time.

            I didn't want to say anything, but......YES! My clients like things finished on time (they're funny like that), so it really comes down to getting the desired image as quickly as possible, by whatever means. While I would love to take the time to futz with the rendering to make it perfect, I am not usually afforded such luxuries, save personal projects.

              Yes, this is great. I had seen this example somewhere else, but there's also alot of other great info and links in this thread. Thank you!
