Looks good so far. I think you camerea placement needs to move a little, because the roof looks a little flat in color. Maybe move to the right.

 

The grass is looking a little too tiled. Try to add some noise to the bump map, and in the diffuse map, change the tiling to .5, and then scale the map up a tad.

 

The curb at the bottom of the image looks a bit weird. I think it is because there are no expansion joint lines. Also, try to make the sidewalk a different material. There should be some sort of curbing running along the edge of the side walk. And the scale of the texture is too large. Use the sam thing I said about the grass diffuse map and apply it here.

 

The plants look like they were photoshoped in. I guess the edges of the plants up front bother me. The color looks off from the rest of the image. Try to get other images of bushes to apply there. If you used photoshop, use the "apply image" command under image.

 

I know this is not your fault, but it seems strange to have a standing seemed roof on the cupola, and then shingles on the rest of the buildiing.

 

Post an image when you are done. Sorry to hit you so hard, but I just think the image has a lot of potential.

 

Good Luck.

I'm on a roll. I question the shadows, at the lower front there seems to be elongated shadowing yet the building with it's deep shadows would tell me the light source is much more overhead, then I look at the cars and their shadows would be to the viewers side. the front sidewalk, has an odd look to it, with a pretty deep curb line. I would also look at a slightly greater contrast with the roof.

 

On a design comment, the cupola seems a bit overpowering and complex for the size and simplicity of the building.

 

But the quality of the rendering I think is great. Again as I have stated before, these type of drawings simply amaze me. I'm an old fashioned, hand drawing architect, so this technology is over my head, but I will catch up.

This first thing I notice straight away about this image is the Lampost. I dont think it actually contributing to the image, it probably is there in the 'non 3D world' but its blocking your good work.

 

And the bushes look like cardboard cut outs.

 

Like it though!
