Yes, the lighting is still not to my liking, and I have to work on this. As
said, there are currently three internal lights (plus a small shadowless
fillin). Maybe a bit confusing as is. I have thought about putting candles
on the tables....

That's strange, because each segment has the texture rotated 30 degrees, so
they do not run across the joints. I shall increase the rotation angle and
see if that is better.

Yes indeed. I shall think about that :-)

Hmm, no. The time of day is definitely evening, so I prefer no sunshine from
outside. However, that could be another scene altogether! There are
different directions I can go in fact, all with their own atmosphere.

It looks like you are rotating around only 1 axis. You can try using rotation around
all 3 axis,
using some random values.

That's correct, because the texture, by itself, has a angle. So, my idea was
to rotate the texture around the vertical axis (here z, as the scene is
Moray built) and get different orientations. I think that the rotation angle
is not large enough. I shall experiment. I may use the other axes, but only
for very small values...

Absolutely true. I am far from happy with the illumination inside the
building, but I am still unsure about how I am going to solve this. Some
more experimentation is needed now.
I answered Alain about the pillar texture. I shall experiment with larger
rotation angles and see what happens. It may be that I shall also subdue
somewhat the contrast within the texture. May help.
In terms of architecture, the main problem is that the stone probably would
break along the inclined sedimentation planes, so a horizontal bedding would
be preferable. Hmm... means I have to take that into account.

Following the comments, I did two things:
- I extinguished one of the interior lights, keeping the one almost
overhead;
- I decreased the bedding angle of the pillar texture; decreased the
contrast between the different bedding planes; increased the rotation angle
of the pillar elements.
Below is the result of these actions. I think it is much better already.

Ooh, I never noticed the use of irid on the windows. Interesting.

question about the stained glass windows. Are they modern? If not you might
think of adding some leading around any figures and outline areas you want
to emphasise like arms across a body etc.
Just my tuppence worth.

Thanks Mike and Stephen!!
The windows are not meant to be stained glass. They are not common in
refectory windows (at least today) and because of their cost, mainly used in
church windows.
However, I thought I could use irid here to give them some difference. It
suggests, I think, ageing of the glass, or some production technique
perhaps. Anyway, It is meant to suggest some texture to the surface itself.
