Looks already nice. Maybe some windows in this sad building at right? And some mor eplants. And something that tells THE STORY of the image. :-)

beautiful!

As a first render, that is -very- nice! Now to be eeeeeeeevil....... >:) Not really. The main thing that catches my eye is the issue that most CG art tends to have; it's a tad too sterile. Scour the freebies here and at RDNA, PoserPros, and search for 'scatters', 'birds', 'Trout', and take a look in the marketplace for the name 'forester'. Scatters is a term for things like leaves, insects, fireflies (basically small, barely noticeable things that you bloody well notice when they -aren't- there). There are a few simple .obj bird props in the Poser freebies (not meant for close up, but to place in the sky for distance effects and flocks). Trout should provide a link to a Japanese site where the site owner has made some Poser ready and .obj static fish and insect meshes. Forester has done some incredible obj add-ons regarding rain, waves, splashes and small waterfalls. Scaling them down can produce some nice little pond splashes where a fish has just caught an insect. What -I- would do is place a butterfly in the lower left, among the reeds or at the rock, Some of the static 'at roost' bird meshes on the roof of the pavilion, where birds would naturally be, and perhaps one or two in flight in the distance; just specks, but recognizable specks. And if it didn't make things to busy, one of forester's splashes between the 1st and 2nd tree to the right of the pavilion, and about a third of the way back from the border of the pond. And perhaps just a peek of one of Trout's fish, as if the photographer caught it a heartheat after a leap. One of the rules is not to make a scene too 'busy', and obey golden triangles and what not, and they are useful. But in outdoor scenery, you have to keep in mind how the human organism reacts. The eye is drawn to a spot of color or apparent movement. And that is always present in nature, even in the dead of winter. Using that trick is how you make a scene look 'alive' to the mind. Once the mind assesses no threat, then the attractor drops out into the background again. If you have Poser, then hop over to RDNA and search their marketplace for 'scatters'. Those can give you a lot of help in filling the voids.

really good ! i think you can improve simply adding a texture on wall and, if you use vue pro, wind on plants, because the little lake have waves maybe caused by wind...

Really good first pic. As an alternative, If you make the sky interesting enough you don't need to put too many scatter objects in (if any!)

Very nice picture, to begin with! I notice one problem that I encounter myself and see in lots of Vue pics, i.e., that the building to the right seems to hoover over the ground rather than being solidly settled on it. The only solution Ive been able to come up with is camouflaging part of the edge with props (patches of grass etc.) Also, maybe the water would benefit from being scaled a bit smaller? Still, a really great start!

Superb first job! However I have to repeat Dale_B... It looks kind of sterile due to the lack of any creature. Add some ducks, swans, cranes or even a heron. That would imporve your image a lot. Nevertheless this is a very nice image. :) Keep up the great work, Phil

Thank you for your advices!!! your advices really do such great help to me !!! i come from china, there nearly is not vue's user,so,i need you help :)
