Daylight Testing 2

Skylight Testing

These are some tests on my scene using the daylight system. The sunlight is mental ray and I basically wanted to see what the scenes would be like if I used lighting now.

Ground Floor

Just seeing if the shadows and colours worked well. Think there is too much shadow overcasting the reception desks.

I was particularly interested to see if my transparent glass would work well.

Outside Screenshots

Was checking to see what the clear glass material was like when lit.

Colour Tests

Just testing some colours for the inner walls of the first floor. Trying to decide what works well with the furniture around the wall. I think the orange works well with the furniture.

Brown

Orange

Green

Blue

Black

Colour Schemes

Trying to find a good colours schemes so I was looking at some typical room colours.

Particularly interested in the cool colours more than I am with the warm colours.

Mental Ray Tests

I used some mental ray lighting (spot light and omni light) over the building. I wanted to see if the materials for the outter wall worked to how I wanted it to be. What I found wrong with this test was my glass materials were turning up too blue.

Just checking to see if there were any problems with the objects. Now need to see what colours will be suitable for the first floor.

Update

Some screenshots of the first floor. Updating and seeing what it looks like from different angles.

Added the inner wall in the middle.

Added double doors near the kitchen area at the back of the building.

Update

Started adding the first floor furniture e.g. sofas and mini barriers.

Update

Added some clear glass walls in the scene. Also added reception desk. I wanted to stylized the the first floor by adding some glass walls inside.

Update

Just updating the main building.

First Floor Update

Used the glazed material here but found it made the floor too dark.

Seeing if the material used here was better then the first one.

Interior Sofas

Sofa I was interested in, in terms of style. So thought I could use it as inspiration for my own design.

Some basic sofas made for the upper floor of the Globe Theatre. Not fully textured yet.

Just a test with glass material added to the windows, will alter material effects.

Another look with the frosted glass effect. See which one would be better if I were to alter my own version.

Draft Floor Plans

My building plans for the globe theatre. Didn't add any furniture plans because I'm not sure what to add in each floor.

Floor Plans

Some images I found of the Globe Theatre taken off the internet. These will be useful for me since I will need reference of it.

Above shot of the globe theatre, useful if I want to see the shape overall.

Inside shot, useful since it provides me the details of the pillars and the balconies.

The main stage of the globe theatre, basic ideas for structure.

A nice shot allowing me to see what it feels like as the audience

The entrance of the globe theatre, useful if I want to change the outsides of it
