Hi everyone!
This is a very quick visualization of an architectural project, that I am developing.

Really interesting! The render seems quite basic, but the presentation looks classy!

Thanks Pibuz.
In fact i only had a couple of hours to do those images. My main goal was the composition and I did not give to much atention to the materials.

Hello, I didn't want to start new thread, so I post it here.

Im trying to render some scenes, some look good, but some not at all... So I just would like to ask for some advices. I use Indigo and SkIndigo for some time, but Im still quite amateur. This way, maybe others could learn something new.

For example, I attach image of my last scene. I have some issues...
- even after almost 3 hours, its quite noisy, why is that?
- walls don't look very good... any tips for it?
- glass in windows & doors also doesn't look very real - is it because of Thin Glass (double)?
- door & window frames - also nothing special, it's just white color with Shiny Plastic preset
- there are white dots in mirror
- any other ideas to make it look better?

Thanks for any tips.

Try rendering alot longer. That could solve most of your issues. Most of my renderings (if I really want great quality) I let render over the weekend. 70+ hours.

For the walls, there is a great material named "interior wall" that simulates a textured dry wall.

As for the glass, although I am still quite new to indigo, try maybe using one of the other glass materials under the downloads?
