A new brochure for work
Half resolution image.
35 hours on a single 2.4 ghz PC (probs with DR at the mo!)
Apart from stair and room, all other models from evermotion (free section).
Any C&C’s welcome

id say thats pretty close to perfect.
would be great to know a little about you lighting setup though (hint hint)
Awesome 
Geoff give yourself a clap on the back mate,
that is really really nice work,

Looks really good - Maybe the glow on the interior is a little too strong? Bear in mind that glow is normally light getting diffused and hitting off little particles in the air so you get it in very dusty environments or foggy nights - it normally builds up over long distances too so it looks a little strong to me in this case.
Really nice match of the exterior and interior - the comp is fantastic 
perfect. love it. really.
Nice image!
Have u rendered it using the linear workflow?
Simply Wonderful! The only thing distracting for me was the image of another stair in the framed artwork. It’s just that the rest of the scene is so natural, and I doubt whether anyone would actually have a photograph of a stair in their house.
Great job.
really nice work!
spot on!
35 hrs though :shock: ouch!
not a big fan of the glow effect, but otherwise its close to perfect!
Cheers guys
@mdi pretty standard light setup.
Irradiance + LC
Vray planes at windows.
Dirct light +vray shadows for sun
Exponential colour thingy.
Pretty much as that tutorial on vizmasters I saw the other week actually.
@joconnell It’s is a fairly big bloom. I’ll turn it down a little for the brochure 
@panthon Didn’t use linear workflow.
I started with my monitor and now my colours are a bit ‘faded’ :lol:
Haven’t got round to any other steps!
@ dlparisi It was suggested that I use the frame to ‘advertise’ my design. Who am I to argue! I agree though, I would have prefered something else.
@s0real yeah bit long that render time. When DR works though it’s amazing how reliant I am on it. Anyway left this one chugging away over the weekend, so no issue with the time really.
here’s what the image looks like without the bloom
I must admit I prefer it with, but maybe toned down a little
WOW! Very impressed!
i think i prefer it without to be honest! or maybe somewhere in between…
I think the bloom sells it more as far as an advertisement.
you’re probably right… just looks a bit too desaturated to me though…
without the bloom for me :shock: perfect image, one of the best i’ve seen so far :shock: i’m shocked, i feel tiny :shock: :shock: :shock:
10/10
Far better without the bloom in my opinion - really crisp render - looks fucking great The blend with the background photograph is perfect.
Absolutely stunning work Geoff - your best yet I think. I agree about the comp with the background image, it’s spot on, and I feel the amount of bloom needs to be more subtle. The second image looks so convincingly real that it looks almost ordinary without some bloom applied. You should put this one up for Expose 4!
Wow that’s really impressive…
nice one geoff!
the one thing that is missing is some reflective caustics from the chrome!
