Architectural Designs - On the Drawing BoardPost your Architectural Work In Proggress Here. Display what is on your drawing board so to speak to show off and obtain constructive criticism.
First off nice rendering, the comments will be aimed at trying to provide you the comments you are asking for.
Door knob seems to high.
Room is sparse, more content would help.
Shoe on floor looks like it belongs to a female basketbal player, size issue.
All white millwork and paint a little unexciting IMHO.
No reflectance on Laptop materials, looks like a toy.
Bedspread looks just like a tucked blanket and color isn't my favorite.
No baseboards at floor to wall intersection.
Light/Shadow bleading at corner of wall to door casing.
Wood? dresser, has no reflectance qualities and is real dark in diffuse.
Large vases missing depth of color, twigs sparse.
Drapes look light and flimsy, no tucking to them.
Lime green is washed out, if that is the color you like make it strong.
Glazing looks like rice paper or fiberglass, maybe different obscuring?
Bottom rails on doors should be the heaviest not styles and intermediats.
No gap under doors, you might have them running into floor and hence the bottom rails look small.
Windows have no casing, not in style with traditional doors and casing.
That is my quick critical comments, the rendering works, but besides the techinical items mentioned the color pallette isn't doing it for me. There is good stuf going on and the rendering is sharp and clean, I just wanted to mention intuitive items and inconsistancies for your benefit. Hope you take it as constructive, it was meant to be, but I am pressed for time.

Good to hear, I was worried that in my haste to provide input for you that I may have come across as curt and negative, which wasn't my goal. We are all still learning

I would have some suggestions to improve your skills, but that would mean to go into creating completelly new scene, or take some of our already modelled scenes.
1. You may practice the rendering, but as archviz people, we must care for subject that we visualize, hence the comments that come from Russell. Most of them are addressed on subject, not on your light setup or things like that.
You need impressive subject matter to make impressive image. If architecture is not impressive you should make it look like that.
2. How do you achieve this? First look at work of other more experience people. Check out gallery here and check out contest and challenge forums. You will see some very creative use of CG skills. You can even try to make test to get simillar result as some of the examples you see. It is acceptable if you give credit to the artist that inspired you.
3. Take a look at some of the links we put at resourse section for the archviz resource and inspiration. Also check out architecurall books and magazines, check out work of photographs and even traditional painters. Learn from them about light and composition, about space and how to make it look good. Choose your subjects carefully, even when you make simple tests like this, cause you will get good picture and you could use it latter for your portfolio...
4. As next step I would recomend the excersize I found very usefull for me.
I have simply chosen a photograph for the refference and tried to make image as close to it as possible. Subject should be simple enough to model it in short time and you try to recreate it in every little detail, so you are satisfied with result in all aspects. I would sure like to see how will you do such excersize. If you decide to go for it, post it here please!
