Genre: Residential Exterior
Software: 3ds Max, V-ray, Photoshop

Hello!

 

This is my first real architectural visualization and any input that may make the picture better would be appreciated. Mainly with focus at Photoshop because I don't have much time to change anything in 3ds Max if it’s not a major thing

Very dark and car seems to be floating.

they to add vertical shift to your camera, now the building seems to be falling backward, also "your building" should be the point of attention in that image, now it is too dark, no definition on details or shape. Also the framing of the image seems a little strange, why are you showing that building on the right? why not move forward and show the street and everything in there, may help to frame better your image, or just crop the image to take out that building if it is not part of your development.

I think it's a little too dark and lack of details as well. + the car, but these are all things that other mentioned before. I want to add the color of the traffic light. A red light mean red light. Red light to the project itself. I think if you had a green traffic light, you would make the viewers to unconsciously interpret it as a little more positive.

 

And I just need to comment this:

why are you showing that building on the right? why not move forward and show the street and everything in there, may help to frame better your image, or just crop the image to take out that building if it is not part of your development.

 

I don't know your projects, but from what I see, the people we in this business are making these kind of stuff for (the people your client is selling in to), usually wants to relate the project to the surrounding buildings. I actually think it shows a good representation of that specific intersection. However, IMO making it 2-line-perspective is essential and absolute a tool that could make the "disturbing" building to the right less "visible".

Thanks a lot for the input guys! I will make the picture brighter, remove the car and change picture to one were the house on the right is less visible.

Green light at the traffic lights would have been better indeed, unfortunately it was red when I took my pictures and I don’t have time to take any new ones (and I don’t have the skills to change it in Photoshop). But I will definitely think of it in the future.

Yes I agree with you, that's why I was questioning why he was showing that building, IMO if he need to show a relation of the new development with the existing environment, his camera got caught in the middle. I would even show a little more of that corner building, but if he just put that building to cover the end of the street that was not modeled then it looks strange.
