Hey there!
I’m trying to study environment modelling by recreating places from photos.
The scene I’m currently studying is this one:
So far I only managed to block it:
However, I can’t understand the materials, especially the walls. Any tips on how can I reproduce it?
Thanks!
can you elaborate a little more !
you did not add any windows !

The walls look completely matte to me. They are just a non-metallic, high roughness material. The color variations look like they are painted, so they would be done with a texture in the color channel.
The floor looks a bit more glossy than what you have done (lower roughness), but with a subtle bump that breaks reflections a bit. There also seems to be a spotlight coming from above.
Hi Ricky!
Basically, I don’t know how to recreate the walls…
In the photo they seem to have some grainy texture but I can’t understand what causes this effect.
Also, there are some parts brighter than others… what causes this color variation?
color variations
there might be some HDRI world map ?
or several light sources
don’t really see any pattern
some windows seems to have some light

Thanks for the guidance, etn249!
That was very clarifying.
I’ll try to follow your tips: matte walls, color variation using the color channel and fix the floor materials.
The spotlight observation was specially helpful once I was very confused with the scene light as well.
Yeah, it’s pretty hard to find a pattern!
As for the windows, I don’t know exactly how I’ll work them out… I tried to create a glass material and add a point light in the back but the result was a bit weird, the light wouldn’t shine through.
to pass window you need to make mat as transparent
and put some spot light in a box

I’ll give it a try Ricky, thanks!
