Perhaps you could also upload the photo before the revit rendering was inserted, I'm having a hard time discerning which is which! great job!

Five stars for sure! You write you have done the distorting - perspective? - in Photoshop - so that is the way? If you go and look for the camera properties in Revit there is not anyting interesting about lens-settings In VIZ you have The Camera Match Utility and you can have a horizon to match with the horizon on the background photo. In Revit there is no horizon to match - OK! background photos you can use - but no lens-settings - the distance you can always manage. So in Revit there is Photoshop? Is it your advice or have I missed something? hjacobs - do you have a hard time deciding which is which? I was thinking first in the same way, but there is very llittle Revit in this picture. It is only the four storey house on the left side of the street that is done in Revit and a little glimpse on the right side of the left street. Have a look at the other image done by JSavage of the same block and you will understand... But for sure a good job, but not very much Revit in it... Some Revit... and some Photoshop... Revit is missing the things you find in VIZ - that is a pity And it is a pity that it is so hard to manage the export file you get from Revit in VIZ.... You have to add materials in VIZ once more.... What makes this picture great is the detailing. But the detailing is mostly on the building in the corner and that is photo. To add detailing to the parts done in Revit you have to import it to VIZ or perhaps you can do it in Revit too. What is missing in Revit is CHAMFER - CHAMFER makes thing seem real. You know in "reality" all corners are a little rounded so you do not hurt yourself on sharp edges. But in Revit the edges are sharp - you can not CHAMFER them in a easy way like in VIZ - no chamfer tool in Revit. ... If the ones having right to program Revit could do a chamfer tool - Revit would have been a greater success... plus inserting The Camera Match Utility from VIZ.... and some NURBS.... for doing tensile structures I just wonder why they do not bother? Perhaps ADT! VIZ! have thoose features. And AutoCad they also have to sell.... Why can you not dimension freely in Revit like in AutoCad... You have to hang up the dimensions on some wall... And no programming plugins to Revit - no script language.... And then it is the rendering in Revit - Accurender - nothing else... Have a look at this guy thinking about rendering - there is some way to go before it can be photorealistic... in Revit: http://cgarchitect.com/news/newsfeed.asp?nid=2232

I find it impossible to tell at the posted resolution what is new work. The glazing in the other image is more obvious but again...it is hard to tell whether the adjacent bldgs are new work or not. Very nice work!

Mr GG is right in saying that a good proportion of the image isn't produced in Revit, but the point of the image is to set the building in it's environment as seemslessly as time and money will allow. It would be fruitless trying to achieve this level of realism exclusivly in Revit. We use Revit for a huge variety of projects, and it performs admirably. But when zero tolerance regarding ambiguity is requested, there can be no substitute for placing the building into the actual environment that's in question. If the local community, or client, looked at a rendering that included buildings that they knew and there were discrepencies in them, how could they trust what they saw of the building you were proposing to them?
