Room With a View

[Dylan]

First attempt at a new model I created.
It is still very noisy and the chrome mat needs a lot longer to cook to look realistic which I will do over the weekend.
I need better/funkier light fittings I think, I'm not too keen on the ones I have and not sure about the sofas!

Thanks to Fred for beautiful background and the rug.

It's ok so far.
It seems overexposed. If the lights are too "hot" they can actually slow render time down.

How do you support the ceiling?

How do you support the ceiling?

I did wonder if anyone would notice this
It's a quick visualisation, without worrying about the structure. I wanted to test rendering with an external background, that was my main aim, but very well spotted!

Ah I was hoping that the chimney was made of some new amazing alloy.

I looked at this rug in Fymoro's scene, and now here, and thought "I've never seen a rug that looked like that" but was at a furniture store today where they actually had a rug that looks nearly identical.

A slight improvement, or at least a little less noisy!

It looks very good. Almost no noise. Me personally do not like the ceiling lights. Well how strange to see the environment outside the window. It is too saturated in color rather than inside

[Fletch]

looking 10x better!
I agree that the exterior could use a great boost in exposure - it should be much brighter than the interior.

I like it Dylan. Just some observation:
-the whole image is a bit washed out and I would go with some vibrance;
-the overall tone is too cold IMO I would try some slight warm (orange maybe?) filter;
-the bump of the floor seems too strong.
Also what Fletch said.
P.S. Have you applied some denoise and/or sharpening filter in post pro? Or resized the image maybe? I can see some jagged lines on the couch on the right.
