Description

This is a place to hide, to be still for a while. Vue 6I. Some objects modelled by myself (building, large bookcase & books, corkboard with cards and map pins, photoframes). Others from libraries and Turbosquid. Most objects retextured. I'm particularly pleased with the lampshade texture, which uses subsurface scattering. I had to add a second point light to get added glow. Minor corrective postwork only. I rendered this with shadow maps instead of raytraced soft shadows, to try them out, but they aren't as accurate in places, but a lot faster to render!

great and realistic scene, but the lighting on the lanmps seems unnaturally focused. especially considering that lampshades diffuse light. the lampshade material does look excellent, as do all the materials. it's a simple scene, but it really conveys a sense of peace, and introduces you to the personality of the absent figure.

I find it odd that the lamp diffuses a downward cone of light. Lighbulbs are generally screwed to the base and light upwards and sides, since their base is metallic and not transparent. Other than that it's a beauitful and inviting room. Materials are excellent.

Thanks for useful critical feedback. There are some adjustments to make to the lighting - I am not entirely convinced either about the sharp edges. One problem is that a point light emits light from a single point, and this leads to sharper edges than a lightbulb which normally has a frosted glass shell which diffuses the light. I'm not sure you're right about no downward light cone though. Will need to look at a real lamp and see. Some things to work on for v2.
