Havnt had much time to work on this project for a while, work is getting hectic. Anyway managed to do a few small things, just the battens, roof sheeting, some facia boards and gutters. hoping to get a lot done today.

i come across a small speed hump, because the building is building is on 2 levels the cladding doesnt line up, the guy that drew the elevations put the cladding going around on the upper level, but when i look at it in 3d it looks stupid and doesnt really make sense, i was thinking of stopping the upper cladding and let the lower cladding carry on, i dont know if this is making sense, i circled the drawings to show.

any advise?

perhaps a band board could give you a break between levels, it'd add a shadow line as well?

I actually tried to, but i was battling too much with materials, im still trying to learn max so i felt more safe to work with what i know, untill i learn max a bit more.

anyway, i didnt add furniture of vegetation, just been playing aroundd with materials and lighting, still not too happy with it, will be doing more adjusting in autocad, then i'll move to photoshop.

so far 100% of the work has been done in autocad. the render was done at 1680 x 1050, render time was 1 hour 17 minutes.

sjoe i need a computer upgrade, my poor donkey is battling to keep up, lol

hope you don't mind me playing with the pictures a bit

but i think the render is a bit dark compared to the sky. try brighten up the render in photoshop first then add few adjustments to find your liking. but i do think the foreground trees that you put in does help bring depth to the image

i only spent about 5 minutes, so it's not really any good, lol. just trying to provide input along the way
