So, today I bake the light for my project. I am really happy that I finally end it! it was really complex, with a lot of props, but I did it. But I am glad that I choose this apartment because it studied me a lot. Some pre-final screenshots for you! The next post will be with final renders
Hey congrats on nearly finishing this scene, its turning out great. Your lighting is a bit washed out at the moment, Dishonored 2 has a bit more contrast in its interiors.
I'll echo that as well, congrats on approaching the end of a great project! Your work is paying off very nicely.
I agree with the comment above about lighting contrast, and I'll add my own observation. These highlights I've circled below look very out of place, and my guess is they are results of a point light placed roughly around (or below) the location of the hanging lamp, which breaks the illusion of it being a functional lamp. I'd recommend finding a better light setup or workaround for this, maybe turning off shadows for that lamp prop, or splitting it into multiple parts, one for the metal and one for the glass.
@alytlebird Thank you for the comments! Unfortunately, I am too tired to change another thing in this project, so now it is like it is. But your comments are useful for my next projects!

Looking forward to the final result.
So, I complete it.

I tried to add embedded videos, but no way, it didn't work.
Hope you like it!
And thank you all!
