@liam887 said: You have done well with the seat but I feel the legs let it down. its not the mechanism as I appreciate that, but the clean white of the seat makes the legs look 'odd and out of place'? Oh, you just killed it The white of the seat is because there is no texture (i wasn't so interested in that). The "catch" should be the legs . I started from the idea that they shouldn't be symmetrical, but as strange as possible (but to offer stability). Maybe just not my brightest idea - i have my excuse: it was late night.

All this stuff got me hot for more Maxwell. Seems I have good timing; the boss is in a good mood, can you say upgrade, yeah!

these remind of some of nomer's renderings..thats a compliment...the 1st one is my favorite

@unknownuser said: Keep them coming. These are great. Back in work now, was off ill when I did these last week but hopefully more to follow soon!!

A collection of the images for this project so far. [image: House multi images2.jpg]

Thanks Brad and Chris... Chris its actually a parking lot for the apartment complex, those should have some trees there at the background.. I'll make another version with trees as background.. allanx

I think that the night scene need more contrast between dark and light, and some atmosphere... Great job by the way

i'm missing people or furniture into the houses. Like the final result. Good job!

Awesome work Liam.

Odlican model...well done.

Thanks Eric.... allanx

Thanks to you too Rick.

Like this a lot. You could go for it a little more and loosen up if you really want to achieve the watercolour look. Reminds me of Thomas Schaller's work. good stuff

howd you do the grass? it look really good!

ufff! I see I have to learn a lot. Good job!

@frederik said: Nope... The image must have been removed... Huh. Well, despite that I think it's a very impressive model.

Peter, at the pace public houses are being demolished and replaced by apartments/stores ect they will be extinct shortly. Boo, thanks again. Nomer, this was a model/render that no matter what I tried, did not materialise in to what I wanted it to. I'm sure we all have those, it's flustrating at times. Adam & mitcorb, I remember it had a pool table & an open fire, I think . At one time it was the only public house in town that was not restricted by opening hours, something to do with the dock workers agreements (many years ago); at the end of their shift they could have a pint or twelve! Thanks John

fair point, I'll add some detail and re-post
