very nice modeling!
I like the details but your lightning and texturing can use some more work...

the shadows look good, but the left side of the picture (where the light comes from) looks too bright...

and the textures lack that bit of realism

great modelling and rendering
perhaps you also have the rime to give the interior some color
the black glass could take some insight

Very nice! You did a great job with the modeling. You could try to put some noise and variation into the color of the building (also, some bump maps would be nice) and maybe add a reflection map for the windows. Very nice building! :)

Very nice :)

Most of the detail is lost on the left part of the image, you could adjust lighting a bit :P

Keep rocking!

very nice, it's true it does lack these little "defaults" to make it more realistic but the modeling is very good. :)

very good modelling! I wish I was as good as that when I was your age!

Same stuff again, give the windows an environment to relfect so they look like they have some glass...maybe soften the image a little with some glow or something from the bright parts...

and with sky like that I would *imagine* that the building would be darker due to the exposure of the camera...or else increase the brightness of the sky and reduce the saturation (not so bright blue)...(I hope that's right guys)...well anyway...try that and see how it looks :bounce:

again great modelling there :thumbsup:

The modeling in this is excellent and very detailed. I agree with what others have said about the texturing. I think it would add a lot to this image if you added some more to the texturing and had some reflection for the windows.

Very nice work!

Use HDRI-lighting for more realistic
( are You 15...? :eek: )

Ha versailles !

i know very well the city of louis XIV because i was living at versailles near this castle there's 10 years ago (about 800 m from my house).
Modelling is nice (some details are missing )http://www.einmannorchester.ch/gin/europe/2003-1/2003-04-05-paris-versailles-1-1000x750.jpg

In this place, there's a lot a rain :)) so on your texture smears are missing and the texturing must be worked.

I think the lighting is good.

For 15 years old and a two day work -> it's very very good

:thumbsup:

keep going on like this !

It's looking so much better now with the bump map, now add some small amount of dirt and perhaps some grass to take away the overall clean look. Great work, mate.

congrats this is looking much better :)

what I would do is lighten the sky but leave the colour levels as they are...and also modify whats reflecting in the windows, so that its not sky all the way down to the ground...I don't know if you have photos of the surrounding buildings...maybe you could find some online...or just find something similar and have some blurred reflections in the windows.

Olz.

I like the new details that you added, and the new texturing and reflections and stuff, even if its not final, adds much more life to the picture.

You can put a shape of a cityline outside of the frame to cast shadows on your building to give the impression there's more then you see.
