I was supposed to post today the final renders of my scene but that will be for another day.

It still doesn't look like i want it to look. Yesterday something i did to a material made the renderer shit on it's pants and in a fit of frustration i deleted all the materials and started to re do the shading from scractch.

The new ones look MORE OR LESS like i want them, but i'm still wrestling with the lighting and why the room looks so freaking dark

It's VERY POSSIBLE that i'm asking blender to do something that should be done on post, but i want to get as closer as i can before using another software.
