Technical Centre Exterior

[asifsiddiqui]

Hi All,

 

First, please accept my heartiest wishes for the new year.

 

This is WIP snap of an exterior of a Techincal Centre. Render using default scanline renderer of Max 6. About 6 lights have been used, one directional with raytraced shadows for sunlight, others are omnis to simulate skylight.

 

Rendering took about 13:25 minutes on current resolution, on AMD 900MHz with 256MB RAM.

 

Comments and Critics are welcome.

 

Regards,

That Was Cool! Im A New Member Of This Community, Just Registered Later This Afternoon. I Would Like To Ask Some Help In How To Render Fast Im Currently Using 3dmax 8 And Autocad 2007 Combination. My Machine Is Fujitsu Siemens Celsius W With 3.07 Gb Ram And 3d Divice Nvidia Geforce 7300 With 256 Mb Memory It Seems Higher Than My Previous Machine But It Works Slowly Especialy When I Put My Render Preferences To Its Highest Set-up.

 

I Would Be Very Much Thankful To Those Who Will Help Me!

Gee, that probably took a while to type...

About the image: lacks contrast. It looks like you have two suns there. And the shadows casted are way too light, they should be darker, especially in an exterior shot.

I'll also add a little tip for stopping your buildings looking as though there pissed

 

Basically select your camera and then go to the Modifiers drop down menu, then camera at the bottom and click camera correction. This should straighten up your buildings, just remember if you move your camera to click the guess button to make sure the buildings are straight.

 

And as Rick said it lacks contrast. Also try and bring your camera up to a person's height it looks weird at the mo.
