this image is a max model in final render. The archictecture is by alberto campo beaza. It is so nice. Just the sort of light quality i want.

Tell me if this is stupid but, the actual building is really simple. What do you think if i were to model it and then for guys on here to import the model into viz and try to get a similar effect. This would be a learning tool for people like me just starting. We could then look at the files or read about what material settings were used for radioity. Lighting reflects textures etc. that makes it achievable. I think if i were to understand a few simple parameters that you guys use to make it look convincing i would be able to hard a solid base to start from.

At the moment i feel like a headless chicken running around clicking buttons here and there and not getting very far.

The other purpose could be for experimentation on what different effects and scenes can be created with the same model. Ideas for individualirty in that sense.

Is that a dumb idea? i won't be too offended honest!

I have all the plans of the building an pictures so i could get it all together. I feel that with some experimentation we can get some nice exterior images.

thanks for listening anyway!
