Today there's plenty of awesome renderings of various objects created with 3ds Max (Mental Ray or V-Ray). But it's said AutoCAD has a powerful Mental Ray rendering engine built-in as well. Does anyone have a link (or can post examples) of great photorealistic renderings made using standalone AutoCAD?
There are lots of better renderings done in AutoCAD but this is just a sample of an internal render of the sample Condominium DWG drawing (presentation quality). See also cloud rendering samples at http://rendering.360.autodesk.com/public.aspx

Hi knmdk,

Thanks guys but I'm talking of something similar to this but made purely with AutoCAD.
By the way Autodesk 360 Rendering provides really poor quality even with the highest settings (my laptop does better job). Probably that's why all renderings from galleries linked by Vlad aren't impressive to me.
I am afraid that the quality in this case does not depend that much on the quality of the rendering engine but more on the amount of work spent on the entourage objects, textures and lighting. Most rendering professionals do not use AutoCAD but the results could be similar.
