Description
First acrchitectural modeling trial. Waiting for C&C. ThanxRelated content
Comments: 7
I think a little more description is necessary for C&C... what software, why'd you make it, how long etc?
As it stand now, I'd maybe throw an environment map in the GI, and a little reflection on the windows to really liven things up with reflections of the sky... that and a little randomization of the brick texture around the building would go a long way.... right now it all looks so perfect. Maybe add some plants o some kind...somewhere, to add a little more life... and I think you'll be well on your way!

The software is 3dsmax ver7
Render Motor: mentalRay
30120 polygons (in total)
The scene is lit with a directional light and a skylight.
In fact, the reflection on the windows is the same as the sky. I used the sky map as reflection map. But I'm looking for some good HDR photos for environment.
Thanks for every piece of the critiques. I'm on the way to fix them. I'll send some test renders soon.

They also have lowres for just reflections, and high-res for actual backgrounds and sky etc.
And if you're looking for a fantastic GI tutorial...here is one that'll help you make use of them: [link]
I believe the second video covers GI in mentalray
