Very nice. I see you are an equal opportunity renderer. You have both left hand workstation and right hand workstations ;)

The people add perspective to the image.

I don't know if its just me, but I see a lot of the computers being unused. Either this is during their lunch break or they are slacking off ;)

Looks Great

A render i recently did in AutoCAD 2000i. People and plants added in Photoshop.Very nice-looking! (also, nice to include the lefties as richard noted) just one thing for accuracy... there isn't even one computer screen showing the augi forums! lol...

honestly, how'd you do what shows up on the screen? do you apply a bmp or something as material?

I think they are all slacking off. Maybe they have gone to the pub! :)

Yes the computer screens are drawn up in layers and the screen is one of these, then a JPEG images is assigned to that layer named SCREEN. Easy really :)

Umm. Melanie, did you read who said that? Brenda has not even commented on it. Sheesh. ;)

Great Job.
Just may be floor, ceiling, chairs to make a little bit brighter and warmer, more close to desk top. And remove black spot on rear wall. They reduce quality of presentation.
I would suggest solving light problem – put 8 omni light on corners of box which much bigger of rendered volume. One of uppers make is raytrace. Or make instead one omni - 2 – 50 % spot light raytrace , – 50 % same spot light without raytrace.
Way don’t use landscape options of AutoCAD instead Photoshop? It’s easier and save time.

Really we missed self-Illumination options in materials; it helps to solve light problem.
This is for wish list.

Bother Richard. Were you looking for a new screen-name? ;-)

1 printer for 2 people - someone is generous.

I didn't think so. :confused: I am probably wrong if you ask a Diva.

Your not kidding. If only it was true i just put those in for presentation otherwise it would look too bare. :)

Sheesh. ;):neutral: I have no idea what you're talking about (come on, I'm speed-reading, and you people keep changing your avatars... her last one had a brown head, yours has a brown head! go easy on me, I hadn't had my coffee yet)

What? You didn't run from the room too? I can't give a diva a break.

To all mankind.
People of AutoCAD land we are here for discussion of render techniques, but not for design issues. Numerous witty professors of école d'art got wrong mission here.

Are you saying that constructive criticism is not wanted in here to better the rendering techniques shown? I'll see what I can do. ;)

Where did you get the "people" and "flowers" from?

Mainly from google images and office plant websites. Just adds a bit of realism to the plans!

I'm... I'm... I'm.... I'm speechless :(

And, very nice image.. I would hate to work in an environment like that though... I need a little privacy and quiet to get my work done...

And, there certainly aren't enough papers on those desks for anything to be getting done CAD related ;)

I wouldn't mind one of those desks, though... nice and big...

I,m lucky as i have a desk that big (and more) but you can't see any of it for A1 plans everywhere :)

Not at all.
Constructive criticism is always good, but deconstructive is not often.

"1 printer for 2 people - someone is generous."I hope we can all give good critiques of images here -- either complements or suggests of different ways of doing things. Some of us also like to engage in some light humor. Hopefully comments are meant that way.

Bear in mind that some of us (me included) are just learning the tricks and techniques associated with creating these models and rendering them.

This is the reason for posting them on this forum to find ways of improving my rendering or just to see what people think of what i have done.
