Residential Development


Recommended Posts

The problem with this project is the scale of it.

 

It comprises of 6 large buildings, ranging between 12 and 19 floors high covering quite a large site area.

 

I do not want to increase the level of detail, but would appreciate input to help me take the finished image to the next stage.

 

Rendered using autodesk viz and rd5000

Standard material and 2 lights

Render time approx 2hrs

next level

entourage and lots of it

i did an image like this in early 2000 on a rd2k

36 hours rendering with a 72 light sydome for a a3 image...............

ahh those were the days

anyway it's in the detail

birds, people, cafe life plants on balcony

open some doors windows get some life/furniture on the balconies

for my money i'd pull the shot in a little

if you are using the skyshader try going for a smaller diffuse angle (sub30 deg) i have found that some of my work in the past looks a little "model like" on projects of this size

to get control of the glass you may wish to consider the use of reflective cards with the hidden from camera switch or render in scanline to get a refelction pass to enable comping a second blue sky
