Just some render practice. Haven't done much of the exterior architectural stuff. Drug out a 60's style ranch house model I did a good while back for experiments.
Rendered on Easy 8, Sun Sky lighting. Used Skatter for the lawn. Sky was put in post pro. Topaz DeNoise . Gimp and Affinity.
Posting two renders. First render pretty minor adjustments , second render "dailed the "tone" of the image down quite a bit. Not sure why but sort of like the second image better. Go Figure a crazy person :! .

Actually, it's difficult to tell, but it could be quite a good rendering.

The grass seems too light in color and uniform in all aspects and the asphalt texture on the driveway does not look realistic, normally neither of those issues would be a problem, except that combined they make up 1/2 of the pixels.

Cool.

I think you just need a car in there and some foreground shadows or dog in the yard and done! :clap:

I discovered years ago that in cases like this - an interesting shadow across from left to right of an unseen tree does magic for spicing up an image for free.

I use the Tree billboard for this puprose - the tree billboard is in the Twilight Render components pack.
