I need some help with lightning, I can sense some extra lightning under art work, I don’t understand how the frame shadow is that big , the shadow of Ottoman and those light patterns on the bed wall.
this is my last render I know it need more work.
and help and guidance would be appreciated
thanks in advance
Try using hdri scenes and add layered lighting
In my opinion, you should focus on photographs rather than other renderings as a reference. Neither the strong, artificial shadow under the painting in a bright, sunlit room nor the non-parallel “sunlight streaks” are realistic.
(And the materials, modeling, and tone mapping of the reference image could also be improved.)
@MissLazy, adjust the FOV (field of view) in your model first to more or less match your reference image.
I think you’ve done a fairly good job there already.
The main observation I would have is that your scene looks for more evenly lit than the rerference - as a result there are fewer shadows.
when I first picked this image it did not occurred to me that’s it a rendered image not a photograph. but I invested my time so I want to be done it with like 100%. I have added material and mapped all material, as per model only vase is missing, yes I need help with tone mapping. how can I produce those sunlight streaks?
layered lightning you mean like fill lights, I did used them.
will try to improve it again…
oh thank you for the appreciation, I have spend fair amount of time and was unable to replicate it 100 % so I decided to ask for help
Without knowing the settings used, it will be impossible to replicate 100%. As noted by others, changing the FOV and using an HDRI brings a bit more contrasted or sharper light and shadow in from the right, assuming something like french doors or a slider…will get you a little closer.
Beyond the lighting, there are small details I assume you’re still working on that will tie it all together…ex: the plant on the table and the blanket on the bed.
