Hello Andretto.
These are the best render I have seen so far.
I am into furniture, and I particularly like the composition, framing, and styling of your pictures. Real professional styling job.
Now a few questions : I am particularly interested in the first interior shots.
Do you use skydome or natural light ? What sort of settings ?
Could you give hints on your windows openings layout and or the color settings of your white walls ?
Also, could you be more specific on the render times ? My impression so far is that when you use natural light you can get good results, but the rendering time is huge.
I understand the 100 h are because of the sss through the curtains. Is that rights ?
Congratulations again and with thanks for your help.

Olivier.

The best sun illumination of indoor scene i ewer saw Basicaly if you're after photorealism there's almost no way how to get better than this (i mean the illumination.. not the modeling or textures;)

hello guys

since many of you seem to like the walls in the last shot, here it is, translated in maxwell:






speaking of the first image, the lighting is made with only one huuuuge emitter (no skylight, sunlight, etc). here's the screengrab:




for the DOF, i always use the online depth of field calculator to fine-tune it
(you can find here: http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html)

hope it helps

Thank you for the information!

Although, as you are using a specular map I don't see any reason to use a numerical value for specular?

[jonnybefree]

Yes, thanks a lot for the DOF Link.
its very usefull!

best greetings

[deneb26]

outstanding...

[siliconbauhaus]

so are you using suin and the emitter or just the emitter then mate?

[agentdark45]

Wow thanks for the material settings! What are your sun and camera settings in the last image? Ive been trying for ages to get realistic outdoor lighting like that last image but just cant.

Help really appreciated!!
