Hey Everyone,

Well for starters, this is my first post so thank you for having me. Also, this is my first leap into the industry and I'm looking for some feedback. Your time in writing a response is very much appreciated.

 

I modeled the tower from an existing building. I did however design the ground floor (entryway, parking lot area..)

Hello.

 

Welcome. I'm new here too, but have been visualising for 15 years.

 

Critique is always a good thing to receive so here's my 10 cents.....

 

1. Is there any glazing on the building? I'd expect some reflections of the sky/clouds on the glass if there is. Maybe up the reflection ior value.

2. The birds seem big to me, are they behind the tower? Also, I think they should be darker.

3. The cars need a bit more reflectivity. The black ones look a bit too black so you can't see the detail on them.

4. The materials on the ground floor look a bit flat white with no texture like concrete. A bump map or some hint of glossy reflections might help. On the metal roof also.

5. The chap walking in to the building looks a bit tall.

 

I've seen a lot worse for a first attempt though so well done, you should be proud of it.
