How to setup artificial light for architecture with Blender internal render

Even with faster ways to light up a scene these days with render engines like YafaRay, LuxRender and Cycles we still find room for old school style lighting for architecture. If you want to learn a way to light up a scene using the Blender internal render and with some…

How to add lights to an interior scene in Blender Cycles?

The use of Cycles for architectural modeling is really cool to see an almost realtime feedback of your modeling. My previous article on the blog just showed how to do that in Cycles. But, a lot of people send me messages asking more about how to deal with lights in…

Rendering a Hotel Room with Blender and YafaRay

There is a simple rule to work with YafaRay and render scenes for architecture, which determines the render method used for a project. When the scene is an external view we should use Pathtracing as render method. And for internal views the best option would be Photon mapping. Those are…

Rendering a kitchen in LuxRender

Here is another great example of internal rendering made with Blender and LuxRender. An artist called strelok posted on the LuxRender user forums a scene of a kitchen, with some great insights for materials and lights. At the discussion on the forums, strelok posted his settings for the rendering with…

Day and night setup with Blender internal render

Even with a lot of external render engines available for Blender, like YafaRay and LuxRender we may at some point have to setup the render of a scene using only the internal render. With the internal render we loose all that quick setup, and advanced features to add global illumination…

Guide about interior lighting for architecture with Blender 3D or YafaRay

In architectural visualization we consider the light of interior scenes, one of the most critical stages of a project, because it can really turn a great model into a poor scene, and make a simple scene gain life, with a well planned illumination. If you choose to use an advanced…

More examples of real time rendering for architectural visualization

The use of technologies to visualize projects for architecture will go towards real time rendering; I have no doubt of that. After the release of FryRender RT and V-Ray RT, a lot of cool examples and projects that use such technology begin to appear on the internet. Last week I…

Improvements for the Ray tracing system in Blender 3D internal render

In the last articles here in the blog, I’m talking a lot about the advantages and uses of external render engines used with Blender 3D. I have to say that I really like to use those render engines, and today very few renders are created entirely with the Blender internal…
