In this album I will focus on exterior lighting and rendering in X17. I want to wrap my head around how, when and where to create lighting in exterior scenes, generally using point lighting in combination with the sun and background (which also contribute to the scene lighting)

Messing around with some textures I made.  I took the photos for them on my walks this last week, played with them in photoshop, and moved to Texturize, then imported into X17. Not using the bumps for height, just normal maps and AO, and a couple have metalness. I am figuring out the ray trace render process, so these images are mostly just shapes for practice. I am liking what I am seeing. 

We will be moving a house from the location where this will reside...My clients want a modern house.  It is a relatively small lot which constrains us to use all available footprint of the lot within regulations.  

So, like all builders...I want a great shop.  I drew what I will build for myself when I grow up. Now I have to decide when I want to "grow up."  Right?  In the meantime enjoy the graphics of my future playhouse...

We designed this space to be more modern and spacious.  We will have to remove walls, and a walk in pantry that connects to the island, and we will add to the height of the existing cabinetry at the wall, also we will straighten up the corner, which was an angled wall, where the fridge is located in the design.
