This is the interior of an exterior I posted a while back. I am waiting for exterior photos from the client. What you see now is an HDRI in V-Ray’s Env slot and for the light, I added V-Ray planes in each window with a sky blue color. Render times were around 15 minutes. These will turn into animation, so good render times are critical.
Good looking exterior - lots of grain but I quite like that.
I personally am liking the mood/lighting of the bathroom shots and I feel like the overexposed exterior in the first is the one that is balanced best, as it feels a little too bright in the other shots.
Re. the light planes; I was under the impression that with the adaptive dome light there is now no need for them, so you might save more time by not using them…possibly…don’t quote me 
Shooting towards the windows is a pain! I don’t usually use the V-Ray Sun/Sky because the Sun is always way too bright, but it has been a while since I tried it, so maybe I’ll try it again with auto exposure. I think shooting towards the windows and autoexposure might be an issue. I started off lighting my scene with an HDRI, but the render times were too high, but it looked a lot better.
With a scene recently I was using an hdr with autoexposure and it was tough balancing stuff, as the auto does weird things to the hdri meaning I had to tweak multipliers strangely iirc…like .01 or something, to stop stuff completely blowing out.
I may have resorted to using posting the background back in tbh…
Very nice exterior shot Bobby, I like the lighting. It gives an impression of a real sunlight image. The only thing that bothers me is the tree in the foreground plane (upper-right corner).
The tree looks very bad and it simply ruins the good image. Maybe you should consider to replace it with a photo reference in Photoshop (you can still use this tree as a reference), or replace it with a better 3D tree.
As for the interiors, lighting is very nice. Did you use Vray planes as skylight portals or regular lights?
Good looking exterior, boring interior (design)
I forgot to mention. I rendered it using hybrid render. I got errors, but only for my Walls&Tiles material, which was okay. I expected to see tons more, like in the earlier days.
Did you use a LUT?
Not on the last kitchen one
Where is it from? The hdr I mean…
you camera is too height i guess, may be it just me..but i like the exterior one very much, good job!
Try turning adaptive lights and/or adaptive dome ON.
It will speed things up for you, even if you’re using a dome light only.
I Love the exterior by the way!
PS. V-Ray dome, in my experience it’s faster than Env slot.
Also, make Post Effects Update Rate 0 (Zero) when using production mode (specially if you have one gpu only).
You mean for my interiors?
This interior image is amazing. Did you used HDRI in Vray Dome Light or in Enviroment slot?
Thank you. The HDRI is in the VRay Dome light.
On the first one, I am seeing a lot of green on the walls and ceilings. I’ll put a gray gi wrapper in it.
if you drag that hdr into a material slot you can adjust the green level by enabling color map option then switch from mono to rgb and decrease the green level
Looks like a Denoise issue… Do you have V-Ray denoiser on those?
