Hi. My first post here. The first image was modelled in low poly, all rendered with Maxwell. The 2 buildings is from a collection of about 30 houses for a catalog...

Wow, nice first post!
Did you use hdri for the illumination?
Cause the lighting is looking good.
I would rather see it rendered on a floor/background than like this, but that's just a personal opinion...
Good job!

Hi. Thx.

I agree about the floor... This pic was for a special purpose, a magazine. And the designers of that mag wanted me to remove the floor etc, and put in the grey gradient :-)

Edit: Yes. Used HDRI for the lightning and reflection.. The christmasgift from NextLimit :-D

Very nice! Especially, the first one looks great. However there's a critical problem with compositing about black matte removal. I strongly suggest you trying the following PS action to achieve it properly so it won't end up with a dark line around the object.

In the third picture, the bricks for the drive-way look too big. Are they correctly scaled? It may just be the perspective.
The first house is better (more attractive) except for the stretched trees for the background.

Good work Rune! :) the first one really stands out above the rest, not that the other two are bad but they fall a bit short behind the first one.

Rune,

I really like your first render, and the modeling. You mentioned that it is low poly. What application did you model it in?

Adrian,

Thanks for the reply but I could not find the HDR's in the download area, just the material database. Can you include a link? I am inspired by the rusults in Rune's first render and would like to achieve the same for some work I am currently doing. Thanks - Don
