Hi blenders,
Here is a post of my work in progress of my first project, fresh pancakes in a kitchen scene. Its a concept, would be nice to have some comments now instead of learning afterwards what could have been done better :).
I’m new to CG and my goal is to create a nice architectural render one day. The reason I choose this scene is because there are a lot of different materials to practice with. So far I learned (in other models, not shown in this picture), modelling, basic shaders, UVmap and texturing, HDRI lightning, use of portals, render performance and some workflow.
So far I did the concept modelling, collected reference photos and set up the camera.
I would like to learn about render layers (fore- and background, render in steps), compositing and workflow tips to work efficient.
I would like to hear some thoughts and any advice is welcome!
