a small update.

Fantastic scene and render daros, your materials are always astounding, even in the test stages.

Thamks killian!

A noisy 20 minutes image.

20 minutes only i'd be happy to get such a clean rendering in 6+ hours.. wow.

Interesting scene, you could turn this into something else such as a a huge library or similar by adding a couple of more models to the scene. Or a large hallway in a big castle with tapestries hanging on the walls, old knights armor standing between the colums and many more ancient things like that.

Good job on the golden columns material, it looks much better now compared to the version in your first two renderings.

Really a nice scene!

[daros]

Hi Maximus, thanks,
i'm to lazy for such a modeling performance

Thanks NicoR44 and Bubbaloo!

And that's is the 2 hours final high-res rendering.

Love your work daros!!

Superb job. The floor and DOF are photo realistic. Impressive.

There is something with the color of the pillars that brings a faint CG looking. Mainly at the base.. I'm not sure what it is... maybe a dirt map would help...?

You know what.. I think the "unreal" look of the pillars come from the fact that it is probably impossible to find golden pillars in our day to day lives! The real world ain't got pristine golden pillars! lol

[Fernando Tella]

Great lighting also!

[killian2828]

Very very nice!

Did you add bokeh in post processing, or is that the result of maybe a glare map?

[daros]

Thanks jespy, markps, Fernando Tella!
A dirt map would help Fernando, i agree...

The colums are from the Hermitage museum in ST. Petersburg.
