Had some issues with this model but managed to make it work with exterior progressive preset. More images to come.

Cheers

Pretty sweet! Glad you worked out the issues you had before with this one. What fixed it eventually?

I love the render, I'm just curious how the wall with the paintings on it connects to the wall outside, unfortunately there's a plant in the way :lol:
Some say there are no stupid questions. I'm in the habit of proving those people wrong.

Just changing preset solved the problem...its my fault really I didn't realise how big the file had become! I'm emulating windows through my mac as well....so i cant use twilight to its full potential really. :cry:

the existing wall curves away behind the glass. so its continuous. the adjoining house is also existing.

thanks for comment, it was a nice project to work on and i'm very happy with the results thanks to Twilight! its the best interior I think I've managed! i'm terrible at them!

Nice render but the structure well you need a much stronger structure to hold those glass panels... :)

Ok, i'm not claiming to be an expert - it was just a gut feeling.
If it really works that way it is a really nice (and sexy :) ) structure...

Very pleasant work! I wish there was a Mac version of Twilight too. If we keep asking, maybe it will happen...Did you model the furniture in Sketchup also?

the furniture is from 3d warehouse but it was pretty low poly and flat...so I used subdivide and smooth to the sofas and applied beveled/round edges to the table and chairs. but they dont look very comfy haha they needed alot of work t make them render nicely. everything is modeled in sketchup.

I will share furniture if anyone wants it?

EH?....sorry..what was that you said??

Nice one Oli!

I guess one thing is that it somehow doesnt look 'glassy' enough?

It looked a bit structurally weird initially...but that doesnt seem to be an issue.

Blame Mac for making their menu setup so... awkward (I'm being nice). :D
