And we don't want to spend a lot of time waiting for the rendering to be completed. We can always do this at a later stage. So, in this particular model let's go up to our render settings, and switch to mental ray. Next thing I do is I always switch off default lights, especially if I've set my own lights up. Set your image size, set the format that you want to save to, and the biggest difference in 2014 is under the Quality tab. Notice at the top there we have something called Unified Sampling.
