Default Hallway Scene

Just finished a tutorial I found on the net showing how to build a mansion hallway, so I thought I'd post it here. If anybody can think of a way for me to improve it over how it looks how, the advice will be welcome!

Very nice image. I love the lighting.

The doors/walls look a little flat. I would add some texture to break up the spec on them. Even a slight bump map can help a lot to break up spec.

IT's an old tute, but a good one...

I'd go with Johnny's suggestion of adding a little micro bump to the surfaces to break up the specularity. I'd also go a step further and look at adding maybe an incidence angle based gradient to the specularity so that the wood doesn't shine so much head on...

It seems the tutorial has been revamped since I last saw it.

Wow!

As soon as i saw this (and the link to the original tutorial, i rushed over and tried it. Of course, i stuck to the tutorial exactly, so my render was exactly like kennez's, but here's the wireframe for H.I.O.M:

Nice looking wire you have there it has an almost neon look to it. Despite the tutorial being quite old, I still think its a nice one to do plus you get a nice looking render at the end of it.
Well done guys!
