Thank you, Ronald!

Thank you very much for the suggestions. I really like the techniques given in the site posted by unrealviz. I must also try the various assorted styles inside sketchup as suggested by Adorno. I also like the view point suggested by pbacot. It gives a better view of the building. I hope to make the corrected image soon and come back here and post it. It would be better to hear all opinions before taking the drawings to the clients.

thanks Brain, it keeps me goingo more and more

Where the hell are the birdies! Joke. Very interesting idea! I really love it! My subjective opinion is that it's a bit to tidy, clean and straight. I don't know if I'm using the right words here, but what I mean is that it would be nice to see some cracked bricks and a bit skewed frames here and there. And birds of course!

Nice style and design.

Here the promised render... [image: MraY_cotty_tumblinggyroscope_indigo.jpg] C&C are welcome!

Nice job. I like the general mood of the scene. I know what you meant with this leather material. I think it's a good thinking but probably you could improve this. Now I think it looks a bit like factory aged - you know, like with those jeans pants. They never look quite natural. Maybe some more differentiation of the spot's sizes would help. But nevertheless - nice one. Just from curiosity - what map is it?

What a great piece of art.

Proper craftsmanship in there, my hope is to get a workshop on retirement and build some of the things that interest me, mainly armoured vehicles that never made it to production. Someday perhaps. Thanks for the inspiration.

Nice!

@tadema said: Wow! great modeling and rendering. Would love to see some more "brighter" renders. John Thx! You're right with the brighter renders, but I don't think I will get to it in the near future... Decided to end this 'study' and go on with the next. But surely, on a fine day in the future I'll pick it up again. Here are some earlier renders, without a true enviroment, which are brighter [image: 8321974221_ddc733f945_b.jpg] [image: 8321974837_3f963fec08_b.jpg] [image: 8323035196_59f5ec27ef_b.jpg] @iichiversii said: This is great, fantastic results, well done [THUMBS UP SIGN] Thx a lot! Glad you like it

Nice! Thanks a lot!

Veeeery nice! The scene has an ominous feel to it... intended or not, I dig it.

Lumion is perfect with sketchup and easy to work with and some beautiful effects!

@dale said: Wow, looks like you are really having a lot of fun with this. Thoroughly enjoyed your images, and the fact they are personal shows. Keep them coming Thanks for the comment "dale" Regards,

No, I didn't. And you are right, I think. It's interesting how the bump is much less prominent in the BSD render.

This model would make a great Render This challenge!!

The sketchy style looks good, and the gate is well done. Would be nice to see the models in a 'standard' style, or even rendered.

You're welcome !

Beautiful work.
