Furniture 3D models often look fake due to unrealistic textures, mismatched lighting, or missing fine details like material imperfections or wear.
- **Unrealistic textures**: Flat, depth-less patterns (e.g., fake wood grain without tactile variation) or wrong reflectivity (shiny plastic mimicking metal) feel artificial. - **Mismatched lighting**: Uniform light or shadows that don’t align with the scene (e.g., a chair with no floor shadow) breaks immersion. - **Missing details**: Skipping small touches like stitching, scratches, or fabric wrinkles removes the "lived-in" feel real furniture has.
To fix this, add subtle texture variations (e.g., faint creases or wood knots) and use soft, directional lighting (like real room light) to help the model blend naturally.
