Hey guys,
This was an assignment done for school. C&C / questions welcome! Max 7 / 1.47
Very well done.
If I may make a couple crits. The glass top just seems to thick to me. I’d knock it down 25%.
And the ceiling. What type of material is it? Its just too perfect for me. (disregarding the large scale bump you have on it. If its a polished metal, put a subtle gray noise type map into the reflection slot.
Why thank you!
Yes, I suppose the glass is a little too thick.
The material on the ceiling is just white with paint-dirt map in the glossy-reflection and reflection slot. I used the wall ( glossy white paint ) in my room as reference. It is definately too reflective now that you mention it. As for that bump in the ceiling - I really have no idea whats causing that 
Any other comments? 
Interior
great job! I love the light on the back wall… great touch!
yeah I though so too 
I just mapped a silouette of some trees to a plane and applied to the opacity slot. Unforutanetely the HDR map couldn’t capture it well enough so I had to use a direct spot light to get the nice shadows on the back wall!
Great start… I see a few things that could be improved:
The tree shadows are clipped at the top, you may want to extend or move your shadow plane around a bit.
The white ceiling is too reflective.
Percydaman was referring to your metal ceiling, not the white one.
Stuff a bunch more cattails in that vase, and add a little bit of bend to them. Then put it on the counter or the end table instead of the floor. If you’re going to leave it on the floor, it should be substantially larger.
Put some magazines on the end table to make it seem more used.
There’s something a bit wierd about your monitor cables… I think they’d try to run them under the glass and drop them through a hole rather than stretch across the countertop like that.
Overall great job!
