put gutter on... covers up the strange end of tiles at roof edge, and improves realism. ;)
same with ridge cap tiles... just as built in real life.

Thanks for your advise, here is a model of "Génoises" border of the typical south France roof with out gutters because it's never raining here ... ;)

Don't say "never" ;)
Maybe an optic effect but under tiles seems too small?

Not never, but rarely here (Nice Côte "d'Azur") ;) ....

Yes you are right the under tile needs to be a bit more thick, Merci Pilou...
Cheers, Fred.

Here is a quick shot at medium + preset takes 1 hour.
I have not used particular setup for the skylight, just the spherical sky image of Fletch (Thanks) and no PS works except for the border... ;)
Still a wip, the architecture is simple i know, but it's like that for this project, a planning permission... ;)

Thanks for comment and helping me to improve... :)

I was in this region in August on holiday and took lots of pictures of houses of a similar style to hopefully model when I get chance. I do like the roof style and no gutters.

I think your roof needs a bit more thickness to the tiles. It just does not quite look right.
Also the tree on the left looks a little too shiny.

It's a very good start though, nice work.

Thanks for the comments, I know about the roof tiles, I will try to improve them later when I will have time... ;)
Here is another shot medium + preset 30 minutes.
