Here's where I've landed for day three working on this piece. I have a few more changes and some experiments to run before I'm ready. -Kix

Kix,

I really like the lighting and the overall feel of the image. I do have a couple of suggestions. First seperate the keystones and trim around the door from the walls. Use the shuffle button on the Marble shaders for the keystone and trim to mix it up a bit. Right now it looks like it's all carved from one solid block of marble, though that may have been your intention. Second, it also looks like the columns were built and then scaled in the assemble room. Because of that the scale on the marble (which works off of local coordinates) looks squashed. You may want to do the scaling in the modeler and leave it 100% in the assemble room so it doesn't look so squashed.

I'm using version 3.0.4 but I think you should be able to run something like this in 2.1. -Kix
