I agree with everyone else: Looks like you've got a real good start here.

It looked more like one at first. I left the name.

Yes...

Yes, that's one thing I will be changing. About the sky, well, I dunno, pure
blue was kinda too blue in the shadows.

Well, I did use a granite normal all over the walls, and the floor and the
table, but if you think I didn't use enough I'll increase the bump_size a
bit.

It doesn't really matter. More than that is really not necessary. At least
at this resolution. Maybe I'll find I need more when I render at 5000x3000
or something (which would be crazy, considering how long this small one
takes).

You could always crank up the gray threshold.. but I simply meant that
the gradient should be darkening in the other direction. In fact, the
way your scene is set up, the majority of the skylight should be coming
from the near-horizon, which would make it even less blue, since the
horizon is usually a pale bluish-greenish color with some dust and haze
in it. The deep blue from the zenith would mostly get blocked by the roof.

I can see it on the table pretty easily, but not so much on anything
else. Of course, whether you want to change this is up to you. Lowering
the error_bound will help pick out the normal better, but I'm sure
you're familiar with what that does to the render time. ;)
I think it would aid realism to have the floor be a little grungy, and
maybe have some dust and dirt accumulating in the cracks and corners,
being exposed to the open air as it is and all. An image map would
probably work well for that.

What were your radiosity settings?

Thanks. Yeah.
> What were your radiosity settings?
If I recall correctly, it was something like this...
radiosity
{
pretrace_start 0.32 pretrace_end 0.01
count 1600 nearest_count 4
error_bound 0.01 recursion_limit 1
low_error_factor 0.5 gray_threshold 0
minimum_reuse 0 brightness 1
max_sample 1 adc_bailout 0.01/2 normal on
}

The tablecloth is outstanding. I'll have to try that cloth simulator. Looks
like a nice piece of work.

It has the impression of being high up in the air...
Very nice lighting!
