So, I am hoping to submit 2 design into BDP Series 5, and I have a question about
rendering. What typically captures more views, a rendering using the default
"building" light domain or using an HDRI image?

I may be getting too deep into changing out HDRI files in the render folder and
stylizing the renderings. (I like rendering and creating scenes because it is
almost like I am playing with the set). Is the preference to keep the renderings
simple? For example, which rendered image below is better for model presentation?

(The one with the orange hint is using the default "building" light domain
while the one with the blacker blacks and shinier bricks is a homebrew.)

Hi,

I’d say: Go with what you prefer
