Looks good and the trees are wonderful.

In the next step I would try more bumps (most inportant for me at the wall gaps). Also you could try to model some small uneveness in the grass and I would try to use bump here too.

Looks real good, and has a great athmosphere, but the ground and underside of the building looks really empty, and steril, compared to the rest of the picture. If you crop those out, the whole image becomes more consistent.

Very good rendering of such a temple or pagoda or what it's called hehe
Maybe u could place a geisha at the entrance of the building..
Also i'm not 100% they have that type of tree's there, but that's just a minor thing, no biggie

:: yeah true... what are you using for the trees please?...::

I agree with the grass thing... or at least stones... something to mirror the incredible detail of the building.

The one thing I would do is change the lighting.

It's a bit of a contradiction... it's obviously sunny (you can see the sun striking the corners of the roof) but the trees and bushes are very dark. this is a visual contradiction. I would move the sun to behind the viewer's right shoulder... well... basically I would experiment with the sun quite a bit.

Otherwise it's a brilliant model, and nicely textured.

Thank you so much for all of the comments, very appreciated

Micha: Sorry, but what is gaps between walls? do u mean the wall is too straight? I really like to know...

I totally agree that it is a bit too empty in the foreground. I think I will need to model up some more detail things and work on the mapping more.

It is a great idea to test more of the sun too, but i quite like this sun angle now

And finally, Trees are onyx, I just mapped them with simple jpg, UVW map is there already when u export them. (Onyx is a great program for trees!!)

forgot to post information:

True: Yes, the wall looks to straight for me, I miss a shadow or more dark gaps (distance) between the stones of the wall. The contrast is so low.
Sorry, my words was not clear enough.

Funny, I see now, the shadows of the walls are accurate aligned with the small walls.

The updated image is wonderful. Gratulation.

Thanks for comments

WolfKiller: the clouds is an HDRI image convert to MXI, then mapped on the sphere behind. Everything else is 3D model.
