MAXimize 05- exponential mapping trial

posting again while on vacation.going back to exponential color mapping. su model to max vray with a dash of ps..pakikilatis na lang po.cheers.

Except for the really dark areas, this looks very good...

ganda agree ako kay sir cloud

been working on a laptop master cloud. lighting is not that dark on my lappy.wondering how it turned so dark.maybe i should work on a desktop instead. anyway thanks for the comment

Nice work here Sir...

--- Ahhh, happens to me too... Hmmmm... Evere tried linear workflow?... Might help...

like good ol kuya cloudy's comments, the shadows look dark in here as well. If it looks fine in your laptop then the laptops probably not calibrated.

even with LWF theres a noticable color difference thats why i went for exponential mapping. maybe 2.2 gamma isnt the right choice after all. i should try on a desktop to see the result. thanks anyway

mataas po ba ung location ng structure na ito? kasi po ung clouds sa background nasa pader napo kitang - kita. masyado ngapong dark ung dark areas tulad ngapo ng sabi nila. para sa akin naman po maganda po ung render:) Pagpalain po kayo:)

ganda ng lighting. And yung grass.
Very Nice!

---Hmmm... If LWF doesn't fit the bill, lil brother #1 Vert's suggestion is the best way to go; monitor calibration...

astig mukhang kinalawang lang yung window sir, update na to ng mas malinaw sir! goodluck!

My best guess is that you have attempted to do LWF without even calibrating your color and grey ranges. Without doing that most important step, LWF in your setup will not mean a thing and will simply cause more trouble than it should. Exponential simply clips the bright ranges, if you do not want to change the color mapping style, you could just nudge the dark muliplier value a bit higher to brighten up the shadow areas...

Aside from the shadows eating more detail than it should, pay careful attention to the tiling in the rusty dirty thing near the roof. If I were you, I'd remove them completely. Adding that detail is fine but they call so much attention to themselves and they make the impressive architecture look like they aren't maintained well. Wear and tear is very important for realism but you must weigh the purpose when you add them, if you were simply visualizing something that should look real and old, then add those details. But if you are trying to sell a new house and previviz 'architectural) was the medium, you aren't going to close a lot of contracts with such a dirty house. You'd be better off doing something looking real and yet, spanking clean and glamorous. Same thing with fallen leaves that seems to be the trend lately.

It has to have a reason for being there. if not - then take it away.

Also check your mapping for the window frames, the lack of beveled highlights in those frames takes away some good points. Try adding some noticale reflections in the window glass if you have one up the second floor. It feels a bit smokey like you have screen wires there na panlaban sa lamok..

If I am going to construct that patio, I am sure I will put a concrete base btween the grass and the tiles to hold them in place. Its not even just aesthetic, the absence of that object makes it look like the tiles were just placed above the bermudas..

This house need to be repainted haha... nice work!!! some comments had been said! I'm not sure with the background if this house is really sit on a higher place...
