This is Kamors throne room. Not finished. Props are missing and etc. But i would like to get tips about the room, critique it. Make me regret for asking critiques pls. I seriously need help on lighting. I am planning to use mostly static renders in my animation so i wont have much camera movements therefore i am planning to render with mental-ray so pls help...
ps:Its dawn time and sun is planned to be coming from right side of the throne.

kamors Room gone Massive

ok since Kamor is the king of the kings i thought that room was little dodgy for him so i remodelled another one with high ceiling and much more space. i have been trying to get the lights right and keep the rendering time low. so i have switched from FG to GI which gave me under a minute renders with my 256MB ram and
P4 2.56GHZ
