During Christmas holidays I had finally time to continue my hobby project that I'm doing for my self training. This is a reproduction of an existing project of Villa Spee from Lab32 Architecten which I'm trying to reproduce into a 3D environment, and subsequently re-render it according to original photos from photographer Jo Pauwels. During this process I'm trying to imitate real photos with everything from modelling all the stuff, through the appearance and characteristics of materials, to the lighting and color correction of the final images. And even if it costs a lot of effort, it's a very effective way to learn a lot :)
Tools used: 3DsMax & Corona Renderer
Below are comparsions between my visualizations and original photos of the project:
