Software: 3ds max vray photoshop
Description:

I want to have some portfolio images so that I can show them to potential clients. I worked on some Holland type homes and just decided that I will go full 3D with minimum post production on this one. If you have any ideas/comments and critics it will be very helpful and appreciated.

 

Also I would like to know what do you guys think about this realistic style that I wanted to achive. Is it maybe the thing not to go too realistic and inlcude aspects of abstract and "unrealistic" in your image?

 

Thanks

If you want to achieve realism, use a softer antialiasing filter - sharpening filters look unrealistic and really quite unpleasing. Try the area or vraylanczos filters with a size of ~2 - 2.5.

That is a great read, thanks.

 

I actually used Area filter but left the value on 1.5 and at the end rendered at 6k and hence filter is almost none visible. From this post I see he puts the value at 2 with 4K images and increases as the size does.

 

I also head a photo reference that I wanted to recreate here. I replicated the f value ISO an Shutter speed from camera. Used HDRI only and Reinhard color mapping with burn value at 0,5, but I will try to use Lwf with ArionFX in the future and see how that works out.
