Ikea Virtual Set by Carlo Maura

Here I am to compare two incredible render engines like VRayforC4D and Maxwell Render on an interior scene created in Cinema4D.

I often work with both of them but obviously not on the same project. I decided to model this scene and recreate a typical Ikea set to compare render speed, image cleaning, settings and materials used for the same set, lights and camera settings.

This test doesn’t want to figure out which is the best render engine simply because it would not be possible, each of them has its own characteristics and they are two excellent products. It would be like comparing Canon and Nikon!

In this test I used 1.9 versions of VRayforC4D and 3.2.5 version of Maxwell Render, both of CPU. The images are rendered on clients with two quad Xeon 2.13 Ghz.

The structure’s original architecture was kept as is mostly everywhere, it was only refurbished. The grand ‘Chhatris’ of roofs were kept and made into personal massage therapy rooms.

It was a challenge to this as the project was only a pitch and they didn’t have any original drawings of the structure. Most of the model was built by eye balling pictures and estimating judgements. The archways ref. images were provided by the client and then later covered in jali.

It was quite a big premises and the work was broken up according to areas, i got this exterior sauna and Jacuzzi area showing the courtyard filled with special outdoor massage tents.

The only con about this project was that it was get through and the whole thing went down. Would’ve been a nice place to Chill and relax.
