fourdimensions Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) Studio/Institution: FourDimensionsClient: Personal WorkGenre: Residential ExteriorSoftware: 3ds Max, V-RayWebsite: http://www.Fourdimensions.co.ukDescription: Hi everyone, Started very recently on this project, basicly I'm not 100% on the look im going for yet, but any things that jump to mind please fire at me. It would be great to have some input! (It's supposed to be off the edge of a beach somewhere... Thoughts? Thanks, Tom. [EDIT] - I have updated the render with some of your mentioned comments. It's worth mentioning that this image has had no post carried out on it at all. It's straight out of Max.

aristocratic3d Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 The render is extremely realistic. Ground work is more than perfect. No Critic I guess. But only issue is "the interior has less furniture" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camby1298 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Curve adjustments could be done on the Luminosity,or possibly a gamma correction (lacks contrast), as well a curve adjustment specifically within the red channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AubreyM Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Love the lighting and the grass/sand. Well done. The only thing I think detracts from this image is that brown grass on the right side of the image. The green color on the longer green grass clumps look a little over saturated too, but that could just be my bad eyes. Good Job Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fourdimensions Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Thanks for all the pointers so far guys, I'm at my desk working away on it (rendering as I type) - First of, yes I'll definitely add more to the interior... I'm so early on in the project I haven't really had much time on that but that's on the to-do list. I did add some contrast with the curve but it just seemed to take away more than it added. However! I didnt think at all to adjust the red curve. I'll give that a go next time around. And yes, the long dry grass isnt great at all, I totally agree with you. I'm going to re-model that all to get a much more realistic resuly, hopefully then it'll actually start contributing to the image! Thanks so far guys! Really helpful!

Camby1298 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 [ATTACH=CONFIG]43899[/ATTACH] Its a good rendering, with some good potential. With some curve love, and some adjustment on compostition you'd be pretty set. I took a couple minutes and applied said things... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camby1298 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 There are several things that can be done to improve an image. I would look to Photography, and the concepts used to enhance a photo. Such as: Rule of thrids ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_thirds ) Originally your building was set in the dead center of the image, where as if you align importent features that the viewer should pay attention to along a thrid line, it will help increase the interest of the over all image. or Fibnocci Composition ( http://www.digital-photography-school.com/divine-composition-with-fibonaccis-ratio-the-rule-of-thirds-on-steroids ) another concept of aligning objects within your frame to increase interest. Color Theory - Helps direct the viewers eye to a certain feature or area that the architect/client wants to convey strongly. Right now your rendering has a wash of red over the entire image, use cool/warm gradients to help look into and scan across the image. Entourage - Using people to look at, point towards or walk towards/to will also help direct the viewers eye Thats a decent start, basic and fundamental but these principles will help any image improve interest.

fourdimensions Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 (edited) Here is an updated image with re-done vegetation. I used probability maps extensively with the terrain to give a more diverse feel. What could I add to the environment to make it more interesting?
