Title: Glass again
Post by: bobbystahr on February 02, 2015, 09:47:51 PM
Downloaded a Welfare Hotel Room prop from r'osity freestuff as it has windows and one needs a hole to pop a stained glass cuz they work best with 2 light sources, room light=low and sun=hot. Well I popped a window I made into this room and set up lights; the room light and 2 in the hall for ambience hopefully plus the sun dead on. hit render and got this. Do I see colour in those light rays or is it my internal optimist surfacing again? Very lo res.2 Detail and AA 2 bit it's a test render...

I love that window.
And your getting pretty darn good at this stuff, bobbyStahr.
It looks like a very simple scene, but has a lot of impact. Kinda inspiring look and feel I think.

It would be a good scene to continue. A desk, chair, books (walli has a collection of book objects), shelves. Great little room, and that window just starts such a great story for it. I would really expect to see that glass in a office/home library before a bedroom, imo.

**I agree but this was handy and fully made and furnished, has a washroom and other stuff deeper in and as a former Freestuff Moderator believe me I have enough stuff to clutter the room up, heh heh heh**

I like it too and would love to see a fully set-up room  :)

Very nice, Bobby! I wonder (and doubt) if the rays get the color from the glass, you might try with a more severely colored glass.

Well I bit the bullet and scoured my models directories, found a bunch and prepared them, including 4 separate glass objects that all needed different treatments. Doing some tests now, a final tomorrow....

Excellent Bobby,
I love these indoor renders, and the glass and mirror along with the other fine details, make this a joy to behold, a super atmosphere could be developed with this style.
Cheers

The really normal thing about this image Jason is it was a total fluke. I loaded the room and lights and just put a camera in it's middle not paying any attention to where the heck it was and when everything was set up got the cool rays because I was way huge...forgot to Convert to cm on the obj import. Not as easy to attain at more real scales I'm finding...will post an update of the converted scene if I can get it as good.

I imagine a young boy or girl standing in front of the window. Their back to the viewer lit mostly or only by the window. Looking up at it, they are deciding if they can pass through it like a door to the world illustrated in the glass. I think they can... But I could be wrong. It may be that if the person ran and jumped through the window they would just go through it and get cut up and fall to the ground breaking their back and scull... But I think the first possible story is better.

I like the first comp of this image better too.

Thanks Michael, the first was a test of the room and as the furniture is was very lo res poser style I binned it all and added my own. the final is still at the huge unconverted size...still haven't been able to get the same effect at real world scale but I'll keep beating this horse till it gets up and runs or dies. Looking for an Alice in Wonderland type little girl model as I had the same/similar idea re: the story in the picture.
