How would you like that last name?

Here is a kitchen that I am working on. He is about to lose the contract because the client can’t understand his 2d drawings. Wish me luck! These interiors are always a bear for me. Exteriors seem to be a breeze, but not these interiors.

Looks to be coming along nicely. Do you model of this stuff, or import it from the architects?

3

I get drawing files. It’s not to often I get a model and when I do, it’s usually really rough.

4

Here is the first iteration. The render times are long (2:45 min) for such a low resolution, so I’ll have to dig into the settings. I have already tweaked the ceiling, which I didn’t notice until post.

Looks nice Bobby. Are you using Vray Bloom/Glare on that?

6

thanks! The lights are touched up in PS. I haven’t really played with V-Rays Bloom/Glare.

This looks really nice, Bobby. I too like your glare. Might be a little heavy for architectural rendering, but it has a real nice feel.

Are those IES lights?

I do wonder if the interior lights should go a hint warmer? Are the LED or what?

Possibly some vertical shift downwards to see more floor, less ceiling?

8

One of the best I’ve seen you do. Keep it up.

Yes, they are IES. They might be slowing things down, so I might swap them out.[quote=“dkendig, post:21, topic:46594, username:dkendig”]

Still having ceiling issues, but getting closer.

Very nice work Bobby!

Thanks! What kind of render times would you expect for this scene? Intel Xeon X5650 @2.67GHz, 36.0GB RAM[quote=“Lupaz, post:16, topic:46726, username:Lupaz”]

To be honest Im not sure, its been a while since Ive played with an arch interior. Ive been doing heavy machinery for oil and gas for a few years.

15

My workflow is like this: model 1 day, texture and lights 1 day, and try to render a clean scene 2 days!

I have tried Universal, the whole sample rate game, Solid Rocks, and my render times are outrageous. If anybody wants to look, here is the scene.

downloading now, Ill see if I can take a crack at it on the weekend :slight_smile:

Currently playing a bit with your scene. I don’t know why but I got really long render times with your materials on surfaces that shouldn’t take that long. Around 10min per bucket on the white cabinets for example.
So I’m currently in the process of creating some new shaders and try to get some reasonable render times. I hope you don’t mind.
I’m not really doing archviz that often so I don’t expect any miracles. To be honest from personal experience interior scenes like this always take ages to render.

Just to have something to compare to. What is your current render time for 1920x1080? And are you running vray 2 or 3? :slight_smile:
