WIP : high-end residential apartment

recent works using hdri for the GI lighting, and a bit photoshopping for the background. quite light rendering (took about 30 minutes to render for 5000pix). all in all quite satisfying results!  :D

Sometimes a job demands you to be quick and fast in order to complete it. so today i want to share, what i do with whatever tools that i have to complete it, the project is to build a clustered houses. the basic plans is there but to find an appropriate perspectives over the web is a bit daunting. The solution?. create it yourself using the perspective that are available over the web pages (for this one all the images are from archdaily).
