Stunningly realistic!  I especially like the 'fur' on the couch--that's an
interesting pigment pattern.

Really nice work, both the lighting and the architecture.

Nice!
To me, the finish on the wood flooring makes it look more like vinyl 
(due to the significant reflection) than wood, but there is a fine line 
between polyurethane coating reflection and plastic looking.

I'm impressed by the molding on the baseboards.

   I'm sorry, but this is just an image_map preprocessed with The Gimp 
(using the furry filter from Gimpressionist).

   Thanks, but the architecture is all from Chief Architect, I didn't model 
anything, just tweaked textures and lighting.

   Yes, it looks like a fake wood made out of vinyl... :) Wood reflections
should be more blurry, but I still haven't found a way to mix the wood grain
bumps with the blurred reflections trick.

   It's all Chief Architect... I did zero modeling there.

Freshly varnished floor using those ultra-gloss, or the socalled "diamond" 
finish, urethane varnishes can be that shiny.

Seems to be a current craze, all that super-glossy stuff: Flat-panel TV frames,
laptop displays, floor varnish... what's next?

Yuck!

Well... the laptop display on the desk isn't shiny enough; I cannot see the
reflection of the wall, the lamp, or the topmost fruit.  Also, I cannot see
myself reflected in the painting, the wall, the electrical outlet, or the smoke
detector.  C'mon, Jaime, get with the program!

The trend began when suddenly all icons in modern desktops turned out hyper
glossy.  My monitor has a label which reads "Piano Polish". :D

well, I don't have much to complain, it's shiny and we all RSOCP lovers should
enjoy it. ;)
