it's time to practice and to learn new stuff!
I spent yesterday working on a new set of images using '' CORONA'' Renderer
that used it once, but now it s totally different!
the light mix is such a ' POWERFUL ' tool!
Had different moods in less then 1 hour.
minor post works were added to the images ( color balancing, curves ...) but 90 % of the effects were done in max!
next step, focusing on texturing.
Corona guys are '' making rendering fun again'' indeed!
