Hm, then perhaps your coloring is correct, but I would work on the intensity of light and the direction of it.  Basically it looks overcast right now because the lighting is so even, I can't tell it's sunny because there's no apparent source of the light!

Heh, well hopefully you'll see something soon.  Though I am insanely busy with schoolwork (which I should get back to now) I am still working a bit, though you will have to see what I'm working on a bit later.  It does have to do with the mascot though! ;)  Thanks for your interest.

Great scene Lynn.
Looks nice and sunny IMHO with crisp shadows.
Just one tiny thing, there is a small amount of texture stretch on the doorway by the paint.
Another lovely Serene scene.

Here's an update. I felt that the corner next to the door needed something more so I took the old chair out of the shed, added some green paint splashes, et voila.

Also fixed the stretch by the door, thanks falloffalot, I missed that bit ;)

Hey thats looking good so far! like the texturing too. something things that i feel would improve the lighting in this picture;

- move the sun a bit backwards, so that the whole side of the building is in the shadows
- put the shadow darkness to 100%
- the suns shadows are never all sharp, maybe try it with a 10% area shadow or something, just so they are not completely sharp.
- render out an occlusion pass, and try to composite over the rendered image in a 2d software. If done correct this will make it a lot darker inside the doors, and in dark corners like where the fountain hits the floor, under the balcony and where the walls come together.

If it looks good, maybe you could add reflections on the marble instead of just a specular, though not perfect reflections but a tiiiiny bit glossy. ( maybe the same on the paintwork)
A final note is that the sky looks out of perspective with the rest of the image.. have a look if you can move it a slight bit.


The fact I have so many things to note is a good sign ;) haha i like where this is going and would love to see it improve!

lynn22:
$imon thank you for your input, much appreciated.

I followed some of your suggestions but I'm stuck on " ..... try it with a 10% area shadow or something"
Where and how do you implement an area shadow, care to expand on the subject ?

I have left the finer details for another update after everything else looks OK ;D
