first interior/radiosity


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I've been learning a lot from this forum, but now I'm in need of some direct feedback. This is my first hi-quality interior rendering (i've done mostly animations).

 

using Viz 2005, scanline, radiosity w/regather

 

The #1 priority of the image is to emphasize the view, so I could use some advice on how to improve that. Unfortunately this is the best photo I could get as its been raining quite a bit the past few days!

 

Deadline is tomorrow but I welcome feedback beyond that.

 

Thanks!

Link,

 

Good start. I think what might improve the quality is to play around with the settings of your materials. They seem to be a little bright and washed out. You can play around with adjusting the brightness of them by selecting the map that needs to be changed and go to output, check enable color map then slide the bar on the right side down to turn down the reflection of you material. Certain materials give off certain reflective values. This might push your interior back and the outdoor image might fit in with your scene better. Good start. Keep us posted!

im not radiosity user, but u can play with contrast. i used your imagen to play a little with Phosothop, but also u can try to fix it directly in 3dsmax, another thing, try to put your background in photoshop and adjust the brightness of the bg.

thats kind of frightening what u left me in the sink. i'll submit it to the client just like that! ;)

 

i work on a laptop and check the images regularly on a CRT, they are always completely different! very frustrating. much more saturated on the crt, so i tend to wash things out a bit more.

 

thanks guys for your suggestions

 

any opinions on "clutter"? more, less, just leave it alone? the client wants some candles to romance it up a bit...

Link,

 

For the most part I think for now you have enough clutter. I think it is hard to place clutter and make it look like it is clutter if you know what I mean. If you need to add something then add your candles per clients request and then maybe something on the Breakfast bar. Just get that head out of your sink! ;-)

almost done... final comments from the client: too grayish, especially ceiling and walls.

 

anyone have tricks for whitening up a ceiling w/o making it look fake? i actually lightened this in photoshop but it still looks muddy on the computer screen. looking at the white ceiling in my office, it is indeed gray relative to other surfaces.

 

i've tried adding uplights and giving the ceiling some self-illumination, but then it becomes very flat.
