Abandoned Cinema [updated v2]

Greetings everyone!
I’d like to share with you my new render image. This is the abandoned cinema building somewhere in Russia. Actually my second attempt of working with Cycles. Took me 2 days to finish.
Hope you enjoy it!

Update v2: I did some more work with this project. Collecting reviews from everywhere I could, I tried to make it more polished

Cool. Can you add some bump to the water? I live in Russia and I found that this is very interesting for me.

Very Cool Scene and good texturing. The only thing is I think the lighting is a bit odd but I couldn’t name it.

very nice lighting I think the problem is it looks real but the lighting isn’t very interesting to look at, get some nice looking shadows going through there and it would really pop awesome job though.

Good effort. I think you made some scaling mistakes. Buildings vs street/sidewalk

Some good work here, but lighting is very flat. Needs some shadows. Also agree that there may be some slight scaling issues, with textures etc…

But good stuff :smiley:

I like this image, and controversially, I’m going to disagree with other posters regarding shadows. Under a flat, overcast sky such as the one you have used, I would expect the lighting to be flat. I think visible shadows would make it less realistic.

Updated the image above

One more update. At this time I tried to edit every part of the scene that was not good to me. I collected reviews from everywhere I could, and the result is above. Hope you enjoy it!
