3D Interior and 3D Exterior Renders


The last compliment for a 3D artist is when someone looks at their creation and is convinced that it is not a computer generated image but a photograph taken from reality. Although some point to a whimsical look for their 3D rendered images, achieving photo realistic results is still considered the "Holy Grail" of the rendering world.

• Modify your lighting: As every artist knows, lighting is essential for any 3D rendering. Play with it and experiment with lighting that represents different times of the day. You are bound to get a more real scene.

• Create reflections: Examine each object in your scene and analyze those that would normally have reflective surfaces. Some examples are bodies of water, shiny earth, and the metallic surface of a car. Creating reflections for these will do wonders for making your rendering realistic.

• Projected Shadows - Shadows add depth to your scene and are essential for a natural look. Adjust the lighting to get a good play of light and shadow in your view. Making it too sunny on a 3D exterior plane or introducing too many light sources on a 3D interior rendering plan reduces the amount of shadows so that the final image looks very flat. However, insufficient lighting would not allow objects to be clearly seen and recognized. Therefore, it is important to choose the optimal amount of lighting for your 3D rendering.

• Use natural-looking textures: Instead of using a 2D paint program, get your textures from photos and use them to create your maps. It will make all the difference by making materials like fabric, stone, wood, and concrete look natural. Be sure to use high-resolution photos to reveal small natural flaws that give a new level of realism to your artwork.

• Make it imperfect: Nothing in the real world is perfect, and if you want to trick people into believing that your 3D rendered image is a photograph, you must imitate this imperfection. A small dot on the wall here and a slight wrinkle in the fabric is enough to confuse people.

• Fix it: Use 2D photo editing software to add objects like real images of trees, shrubs and people to your 3D interior and exterior 3D images.
