My final version

3DS MAX 2009 + Vray

This is my final version… I had much difficulty trying to get the floor texture of wood right so I had left it as is… you can barely see it anyway.

The rest of this - aside from the posters of course - as all RSL shaders.
Again lighting done in Blender, exported via Mosaic and rendered in Aqsis 1.6.0

Great. Another Cinema work here. Other than light from window it´s nice.
Some overexposure there.

dpendzich, it looks good. For the textures, could you try a brighter wall paper? One that has a simpler design?

psulli, the curtains look much better now. I guess with dof and motion blur it’ll look good.

bobbyrtaylor, I can’t really say anything about it. It is really good. And where did you get the picture on the first poster from the left? It looks really good. Like a classic.

Hello ahven

Thanks for the comment. I didn’t do any post work on this I wanted to but I was afraid that I would run out of time for posting my work here.

Thanks again and God Bless

Okay, I had time to do one more. This one is IBL only, there are no lights in the scene.

Maya 2009, Mental Ray, FG and GI, Image Based Lighting only.

I hope it looks good here on the website, it looks nice on my monitor, but it seems things look darker on the website for some reason. Maybe it’s the JPG’ing?

Thanks for this, I had a really fun time doing these.

[Inky99]

Inky99 - hey, your image looks great, very “alone in the dark.” I think the light coming in from the street could be softer. Also, the outside image looks to sharp to me, it would look nice if it was slightly out of focus. It also might look nice to have some of that street light spill into the room and light the furniture a bit, just to define some more shape.

Yeah, thanks for the comment, Waters. I really like your image, BTW, very realistic-looking lighting.

Now that I look at my night image again, I think you’re right. If I had time, I’d soften up the background buildings in the street a little bit. The streetlight coming in I wanted to keep very minimal because my idea for the picture was to have almost all the light coming from the computer monitors. But yeah I can see what you’re saying. I thought about having more “moonlight” coming in just to give a little less contrast in the room itself, but I was going for pretty heavy contrast. As always with these things, if I had time, I’d keep tweaking forever and ever.

Thanks again.
