There's no specific method, but what I've done in the past is use a twilight sky (Photoshop later), have some pretty birght lights in there (Photoshop in a lens glow and/or aperture blades effect), keep the contrast pretty high and give the lighting a subtle blue color cast.

Thats basically how I have done it before also (not that Im going to pretend my night renders are anything amazing). You can get away without even using GI in many instances for night lighting also - which will speed up your ability to test render. Since your going to be able to see in any windows you want illuminated, you are most likely going to have to build the interior walls, and roughly furnish the interiors (20 polygon sofas, 6 polygon wall art, etc). Heres some general lighting tips I hope you can use..

 

-Make your ambient color dark blue, and very low intensity

-Use far attenuation on all your highlight lights

-If you show the moon, make sure the moon-light is being cast from the proper direction (no moonlight in the front of the building if the moon is behind the bldg)

-Use colored lights (orange Sodium lighting, Blue HPF lighting, Green florescent lighting) but don't get too crazy... A hint of color goes a looonng way!

-Only put lighting where lighting should be (all illumination should have a source)

-If you can afford the render times, make everything shiny (as though dew has settled)... Clients eat that effect up!

 

For night scenes I organize my lights into 2 categories - Base illumination and highlight... Base illum lights actually light the scene. highlight lights only serve to make the render pretty - always set up your base first, then add the highlights where they look good.

 

Hope this helps some - and test-render, test-render, test-render!

Hi Thanks to Every on Actually I can do Dat light But Still I am not Be able to creat Night Exterier Lightin Because of this I am not be able to concentrate .

 

Reference images man.... Find some great photos that look like what you want your project to be, and just try to replicate the lighting - working from reference is always easier than trying to make it up as you go ;)
