Simple House

[dirtypr]

Just a simple house, Thought I'd share.. Thanks in advance for your comments/suggestions/criticisms



What are your thoughts on the angle of the view and sun? I was going for an early morning light, not sure if i like the result.

I'm gonna adjust the grass a bit and try and figure out why that white polygon keeps appearing behind the stairs..

Good start! Background image light direction doesn't match models, so there is some intuitive conflict going on. I would add some more depth to walk so that it doesn't apear as an applied decal and watch the quality of arcs as it is faceted. Materials are things you will need to tweak via trial and error, but as stated you have a good start, keep up the good work and keep us up to date on your progress, thanks for posting!

Thanks Russell! I'll keep playing with the materials/lighting, but here is a quick update..

a few more adjustments..

Much better. For the brick use a good bump map, I see that you got rid of the displacement from the last image.
The textures are better but still have a bit to go. Try playing with the reflection settings to get a better result.
The grass is really suffering from tiling. Better to either get a better texture or scatter some grass with something like forest pack.

Keep it up

Better, keep it up!

Nice work so far. Just one thing that caught my eye instantly is that your front facade as well as the side is in shade. It will be good to light up your front facade with direct sunlight, and probably have less light intensity on the other. Or you can have the side in dark, can project nice shadows of the front columns on right side of your imahttp://www.3dallusions.com/forums/newreply.php?p=53985&noquote=1ge by keeping the source of direct light from the left behind your camera.
