RE: Screenshot criticism thread

I'd like the blue light to light up a little more of the dark areas. But otherwise, awesome.

Maybe cast a shadow, from inside the stove.

RE: Screenshot criticism thread

I feel like every lamp stands out too much.

This would be because the overall lighting isn't very bright. Instead, the lamps only seem to cast a small ball of light around them. Try playing with more lighting.
Make it seem like the lamps are actually emitting light into the room, and aren't just props.

Ye, the ball of light is there, because i added a point light on every gaslamp Tongue
I don't really know how i can make it look like they are not casting these but i will experiment around.
Thanks for your criticism^^
Also i fixed the first link. It broke somehow... (Looks like Puush pictures break if you delete them in the files folder.)

RE: Screenshot criticism thread

Add another pointlight, which is the same color as the first one, but darker. Give it a bigger radius, and place it so it looks natural.

Too bright and the colors you've used are looking quite ugly

It's both too bright and too dark.
For a room with that many lamps, everything else is too dark.
The lamps in the ceiling don't seem to emit any light at all.
The lamps on the wall seem to be emitting too much light.

Hm i will have to look into it now, or sometimes soon. I normally dont play around with spot and point lights so i dont know how to create a perfect environment Tongue
In this room, no point and/or spotlights were added. But if the lamps on the ceiling are to weak i could try adding spotlights going straight down to the floor.

Or is there a better way to edit the lights?

That's fine.
But you can always make new copies of the lamps and edit them.
