Aw, shucks. Thanks. Actually, I over worked the fire. It had looked better in an earlier version that, alas, was unintentionally overwritten. The biggest issues I find with room scenes are lighting and FOV. The scale of the room is 1BU: 1 inch, the camera is about eye-level for a 5'-10" individual (lower than my own, but not everyone "looks down" on the world. The room seems well lit, but if an object (say Vicki in her birthday suit) is placed on the rug in front of the fire, the side toward the camera becomes quite lifeless and plastic looking. I've experimented with tiny, ranged lights to illuminate the figure, but with minimum success. What I really need is true radiosity, dang-it! BTW: The lamp, candle sticks and end table are all free stuff, everything else is Bryce.
