Living room not very real-looking

[parker2740]

Besides the artifical glow on the image there seems to be something not quite right about this image. Any ideas?

 

Thanks

The main thing that catches my attention is that your lights are a bit overpowering. There are too many emitters in the scene. Try cutting back the number of lights.... and the intensity. Your result from too many lights is that everything looks flat, and you don't get much shadow definition to add contrast in the scene.

 

you may want to even try just lighting the kitchen and bedroom and only illuminate from the window for the seating area.

As BKittsARC said, it lack contrast, chhange your lights setup.

A little more contrast in photoshop to see the difference, but go by changing the lights.

Brians nailed it. You have too many lights. Cut it back to just environment and a sunlight light source, and work forwards from there, adding to the scene till it looks right. Plus it looks like the lounge is shoe horned into the corner by the window, when there is a great big space at the front of the camera..

Hej James!

Quite nice picture

You've done great material in refrigerator side! Could you post some settings for that material- shaders, if anisotropic: what range and what direction, reflection settings and so on.... And what kind of tekstures did You use. Please

 

Thanks Lukasz T.

Nice!

I think something is wrong with the white THIN door!(Just in the center of image).

The texture for the fridge was a rendered image of the other side and then manipulated in Photoshop. Originally, it was a reflective surface but the rendertime were too crazy.
