krishutchison Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 What are the things that are really no big deal but annoy the hell out of you when you see them in images? A couple I can think of for me are: 1. stock people who have shadows that do not match the scene. 2. When the grass and footpath are exactly the same plane.

RyderSK Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Too scratched/dirty specular reflections. I know everyone is after realism, and nothing is perfect in reality, but in 90perc. I see it being strongly overdone. It's specially repulsive when that treatment is given to wallpaint. OK, it looks more interesting, but it's unnecessary and distracting. Simple shaders are OK, no need to complicate what doesn't need to be complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francisco Penaloza Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The house in the forest. Sloppy collage renderings. Buy a preset scene, buy pre-made furniture, present as original image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francisco Penaloza Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Images that are composed purely to exploit one 3d technique. To follow in the same idea. Ridiculous out of focus, Bad composition just to show off out of focus, Chromatic aberration so strong that make the image looks 3D. Those ugly pre-made color presets a la instagram.

artmaknev Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 1. excessive use of ambient occlusion - makes the image look heavy/dirty 2. angled camera (no its not dramatic anymore...it gives you head spins) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliot Blenkarne Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Overcooked bump. I'm reminded of a quote, the source I can't recall (I paraphrase) "Wind it back until it looks right, then wind it back another 50%" - this serves me well I think these days. The one that always gets me is asphalt roads, with too much reflection and bump. Looks like some weird, poorly poured concrete/plastic mess. The other one is AO, especially in non-clay scenes and scenes with a lot of folded fabrics etc. Turing AO off, especially for interiors was one of the best moves I made for to get a bit of realism. Note: I have been guilty of both of these, and this forum (and others) have taught me well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyderSK Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'm reminded of a quote, the source I can't recall Bertrand Benoit :- ) A good rule to live by. He sets it up to where he likes it though, than scales back by half. If you scale back twice, you end up with close to nothing ;- ) The other one is AO Over 9000 times. Simple AO overlay in interior needs to die, the 90s want it back. Nothing is ever uglier, more CGI screaming than AO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philippelamoureux Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I usually hate 2d people and 3d people even more in renderings!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryannelson Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I usually hate 2d people and 3d people even more in renderings!!! I actually find it hilarious that clients often want their scene populated with a totally unrealistic amount of people to show off the environment, while photographers often want NO people to show off the architecture. Lately, I've been using entourage very sparingly if at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
