This model was created by Alvaro Luna Bautista and Joel Andersdon. And it was provided for the Natural History Lighting challenge.
I have visited the Museum a year ago, and got enchanted by its architecture, I found this model just by browsing the net and got caught up with the task to visualize it in real time.
At first the model is pack with mirror and instance objects, this present a challenge when you want to display it in realtime engine. I have took the laborious task to flip back to normal all of the mirrored objects, after that since no textures where provided, I made a couple textures from my pictures I took last year and did a simple but yet ok texture mapping.
 
Notice that the floor is not really wood in the real museum, but I want it to test RENDERLights new mirror reflection system, and im quite happy how far we have managed to get it working.

Well I give credit for the modelers they did a good job, and hopefully they will get to see this video some day on this channel. If you want to know more about RENDERLights please vist www.renderlights.com.
