    Your workflow is one of the ways many people exploring. Good for communicate with clients without starting 3D in details and applied materials. Got some examples [image: 1785925262900-spacely-ai-standard-20260805101939-nz7km.png] [image: 1785925263021-spacely-ai-standard-20260805101933-re0ls.png] [image: 1785925263157-spacely-ai-standard-20260805101913-e8qr9.png]

    You come up with amazing results, seriously inventive. Having lived in a similar space in Birmingham for a while, unless the residents are stumpy, they will need a bone dome. Not joking. The attic conversion Sara and I lived in led to more than a few cranial collisions.

    The point I am making with these renders is, that with a SICK pc (Not in the good meaning of the word), I can get these results - Rayscaper and a decent pc will fly.

    A lot more efficient than any I have been to. Last time I came across a public baths that was not a swimming pool was around 1968-9. Latchmere bathes was a huge Victorian hall with a swimming pool in the middle. The front of house had actual bathtub niches, men one side and women the other. My memory say's six per side. The rear of the building was the boiler/furnace where clinical waste was burned with coal to heat pool water and allow for the massive industrial washing machines because nobody had those at home. We had no fridge either until about 70-72 sometime. It's odd, the places an image can take us, I have clear memory of seeing old folk going into those bath niches. That and my dad taking me for the one and only time to swim there, I couldn't at the time. When I went down for the sixth time or so, someone suggested my dad pull me out or watch me drown. That was what he said anyway. Thanks for the reminder Majid, a somehow less complex and simpler time then, as you often say, may we return to simpler and more mutually respectful days with children grow up being children rather than statistics. https://www.lostlidos.co.uk/1998/06/01/latchmere-road-baths/ There was a rail bridge on the road to the baths, so low that they had to dip the road under it and every spring it would flood to about 1.5m. Not to mention autumn rains. Sorry, like I said, memories woke up.

    Just a quick mention that I placed a disc at ground level underneath the car and made it glass to give something for a shadow/reflection to give some depth. Not perfect but something.

    Sounds like a good update. Had a quick test. Definitely creates compelling images. My main feedback would be the UI. The font, in places, is tiny and the colour contrast between font color and UI background adds to the readability concerns. What I did like is the depth of options. But the free tier means you can't really test these. The voice on the Guide was difficult to listen to and I have yet to find a way to skip steps. As soon as you stop the Guide it resets to Step 1.

    The Lion, larger version available here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/bz4vs0w0u8p6wzv/Lion.zip/file AI text After Aries, I’m continuing my series of Stands (Jojo bizarre"s adventure, Crusaders) inspired by the European zodiac signs with Leo. The idea remains the same: to imagine each sign not simply as a personification, but as an autonomous entity, a Stand with its own presence, energy, and visual logic. For this Leo, I wanted to move away from the classic heroic or solar feline. The character became a kind of cat-warrior, at once elegant, martial, and slightly unsettling. It is shown in the momentum of a spectacular kick, facing a head suspended in mid-air. This head represents a major capitalist boss, caricatured as a massive, sardonic face wearing a top hat and smoking a large cigar. This is the figure the Stand is fighting: a deliberately theatrical, satirical, and symbolic image. The character’s model is inspired by a friend’s cat, which gives the project a more personal starting point. The cat’s body comes from MakeHuman. The rest was created with Nomad on iPad, SketchUp, ZBrush, and Filter Forge for the textures and patterns. The final render, set in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk environment, comes from AI work based on a photo and 3D renders of the project. As often, AI is not the sole starting point here, but rather a staging step: it allows me to place the sculpture back into a broader narrative context, like a poster or a scene taken from an imaginary universe. Astrological Stand — Leo.

    Ta, mates rate to you so only 1.5 mil. OK, you talked me down so 50p. I found a site stocking Gaggenau stuff and had a look for inspiration. I could not find a single unit with zero symmetry faults so started again and went down the Rabbit hole so it is completely different from origin. I will revisit at a later stage. Done though.......
