This one does look much better than the older ones so I guess you were right in continuing to push!

Best,
Jason.

I agree. The latest one looks good.

[Mihai]

Yeah, much better now

That carpet pattern is really 70s horror design....any chance to change it?

[Tok_Tok]

This is looking much better! Great job!

Could you lower the compression on that JPEG, or post a PNG?

I can't believe that's still in there, such a modern gym with that kind of a carpet is too big of a contrast if you ask me But that's still a matter of taste.

The progression from the first to the most current is fantastic!

My only comment, and this is completely optional, but if you want it to pass as a real space I would throw some imperfections in obvious places. If it were my job I'd visit a Gym with a camera and snap a few shots of the weights. Generally they get pretty dinged up through use. The seat leather/vinyl would have creases or worn spots.. the carpet would have a subtle wear pattern in high traffic areas, some of the lights would be either out or different bulbs (often spaces have mixed cool white and warm white because purchases happen over time and people generally don't care). The best reference for you is a real space.

Oh, and you don't often see floor to ceiling glass like that without some form of 'stupid strip' or marking of some kind to keep people (often carrying heavy weights) from walking right into it. If you leave the glass the way it is, be sure to put a good faceprint on one of them.

On the other hand, if it's supposed to be a new facility just ignore everything I just suggested.

Great work btw.

Thanks for you comments.

iandavis: although it is a new facility, I agree with and appreciate the tips. I will defiantly keep those in mind.

Mihai (and others): the carpet is not as bad as I made it look....

I think it looks decent in this close up, but I can't get it too look like this in the "big picture":


Here is the carpet MXM if anyone is curious to look at it:
