Texturing Progress

It’s been over a month since the Contest starts…. so I need to stop chillin and I should get down to work.
I had a little problem with modeling the dome walls. but I found an interesting workflow to do it. I didn’t use vray/corona displacement mod, I didn’t model it by hand and I didn’t use external software or plugin…. I made it by really oldschool technique: it’s classic mesh displacer with standard procedural tiles map on the slot.
My first preview render is pretty close to the original photo… but…. I’m not satysfied with the light. I think it’s a little bit boring.

I’ve finally got everything in place to render my images now. I’m attaching viewports of my camera angles, but unfortunately since I’m working on a pretty outdated machine, I’m not able to show all the vegetation and books etc that show how much work I’ve put into this! I’ve had to work the whole time with no displayed textures, high poly objects displayed as boxes, etc… I’m excited to hit render and see the results!
