Interior Private Swimming Pool

XyzeR · 30-11-2006, 06:11 PM

Wanted to show my latest project

Visualisation made in Max7 + Vray advanced
I'm sorry for the big image and teh forumtable breaking, but i can't seem to grasp how to get a thumbnail posted...

I'm still not realy 100% satisfied with the lighting, the sunlight needs to be more intens imho. Critics are welcomed.

It looks alright, but I think the shadow from the skylight should land on the pool and create some nice caustics and reflections. Right now it looks a little odd. Also, why have you desaturated everything but the copyright footer? The swimming pool looks really evil and unrealistic when it's black. To make the sunlight more intense, instead of faffing around with loads of renders, fix it up in your image editor with levels to make it more intense. It's a lot quicker and more adjustable, and doesn't have you spending ages doing render after render trying to get it right.

Since this is a private pool, where are the hot girls ?

POOL PARTY!

I agree with Blytheye. Make the light hit the water and stuff.

The scaling seems weird to me ... like things are overly large. But ... they are the right size in relation to each other.

Make the water less dark. More blue and more clear. And less noise since no one is in there?

the architectural stuff are cool, but the water needs some work! I think the bumps are toob ig, and its black, it should be a lil more flat and blue

I pretty much agree with everything here. Stiller water that is a bit more blue instead of black would be good, and either sunlight hitting the water like they said for caustics, add maybe regular lights if u are going for a kind of dusk like scene, which I thought at first but it may just be weak sunlight. I feel like a swimming pool would have more lights, either in the roof or in the pool itself dunno though.
