Furniture studio shot

Trying to showcase a nice model I found on the Fritz Hansen website. I only did the texturing (model comes without texture of shader), and the environment including the glass bricks. The bricks are modelled and use a bump map found in the MXM gallery. There's a big textured emitter behind the wall.
I used 104 and camera tonemapping. Hope you like it.

Cute as always... the only crit is on the overall size of the leather bump texture... isn't it a bit overscaled?

Regards, Riccardo.

Look great, I love the composition :D

Are you going to do a scene with all you furniture, something like a design store should be great :P

Thanks Riccardo. You may be right. The texture tiles quite well (I did it from a photo on CGTextures) so I could make it smaller.

Vanessa: I'm taking a leaf from DocBouvierLeduc's book and modeling an entire house right now. Even though I picked a much easier house than the Doc's, it's extremely time consuming so I won't be posting here that much in the next few days/weeks. When I'm done, though, it could be a nice scene to showcase some furniture models. The house is very sparsely furnished in the reference photos I have.

perhaps you guys could do a whole series of renders of a famous house for Microsoft to showcase their Photosynth application
I am sure they they could sponsor the rendering of a couple of hundred large images on a large network if it was pitched well :D good exposure for Indigo and your skills too... :roll:

You are always a master of texture, BbB.

Cheers Zsouthboy.
Big Fan: Isn't the point of Photosynth that it works by infering geometry based on photographs?

Simple and efficient, nice leather texture. Is the dof made in postpro or did you used focus distance in indigo ?

Hi Enrico. The DOF is pure Indigo.

i gave a look into fritz hansen website - they indeed have a nice library of models but - how did u get it inside blender?? blender won't import dxf from this website...at least i couldn't get this done...
btw - if u would put some tables/desks/some office stuff - u would achieve very nice office scene...

Oops, hold on a minute. Maybe it's not fritz hansen. I was pretty sure but I keep so many models in the same folder, I don't know any more. I can only remember using quite a lot of models from Fritz Hansen. Their "space" lounge chair, for instance, is really good and I had no problem importing it. (try the .3ds file, it worked fine for me).
