this is it all done, i have been playing with lighting and here are my results.to different rigs here, could you say with was is more realistic for out door lighting. take into consideration the GI and FG in both the images and i can mix and match the rigs, like take the sky light from the 2nd one and put it in the first rig

makes sense really i put every lil trick in the book into that render.
here is the first part of the barn, won't take to long to model but the texture are the bit thats gonna be time consuming.
