I kind of randomly decided to make a cozy little alcove for a club or bar...should be more to follow:

Correction: Got it to look a little better.

Very nice. I can see myself relaxing in there for sure.

Looking at the table, seems like the sort of chess game I could play lol.

Only thing missing is my slippers

Thanks. I'm working on the rest of the bar as well. It's so nice working with this editor after the nightmare that was Blender.

That looks quite comfy.

I will defenilty be using your props for guidance. Particulary the ones that have glass

The concept I'm going for is a two level basement pub like you might see up north where you can actually have basements without flood problems.

First basement level is going to be something open to the public like what you put together and the second (what I'm doing right now) would be open only to certain clients for private meetings (for the local mob, politicians, rich people, etc). An elevator will connect the two levels (if I can get animation working) and the first level would connect to the street via stairs.

I'm not very organized so I don't have any storyboards . Just post-it notes.

Well I'm finished will the lower level, aside from all the little props at least. Poly count is 2123. I'll make another post once it is properly lighted, assuming I don't grow old with age and die first. I used alpha blending to do the curtains (extrapolating from Mar's tutorial on glass).

A shot from behind the bar:

Thats really coming together. I see lighting, like in most cases, is going to be a scene breaker. It will be interesting on your choices.

I can see you are poly conscious, maybe spend a couple more of those curtains, they will add a natural element to the scene.

This is the scene lighted...I kind of blew my poly limit (7076 before triangulation). I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the curtains. At this point the scene already takes 3 minutes to render the light maps and I don't want to make it any worse than it is. :/ Feedback on the lighting or anything else would be much appreciated.

A light fixture I made...if anyone wants it as a prefab, let me know. The poly count is 1241.

That's a sweet light fixture, that's for sure.

John, would you mind providing one of those lightmapped shots for our gallery?

I too like the wall lamps

3 minutes to render? Wow, many of my scenes take between 30-90 minutes to render. One (Mayan Temple) took over 2 hours lol.

Thanks John, I'll post it together with the results of the Winter Compo.

Like the layout and stuff. Couches could use a better texture though, and if you're worried about polycount the lamps and stuff are very high poly.

Also, Deled doesn't have a "Normals Smooth" function, but your wall curves definitely need that.
