Well, it will be possible, after Nate (my client) builds it, and if he sends me pics.

I agree. I like the style concept you put to use here. It looks like you merged two styles in photoshop, focusing on the items of interest.

I Like. Thanks for sharing.

where it's at right now...

still holding off on post-processing - waiting on info to finish up details, revisions, etc.

Yet another variation on the recursive spirals theme.

Wow, I like it!

Nice Work!

Moving on to other pages and learned a bit so redid the first and here they are: better, I think...you? Sure would like to have some C&C on the approach to interiors, thanks.

...I should probably explain this was just a form study model (with a bit of color) I added some furniture and peeps to so I could practice the render.

40K is an influence, but I am trying hard to make some originals...

I bet the WH40K influence can be seen here...I am still trying not to get too addicted to it.

Thanks for the comments everyone...

Nice presentaion, but I would delete the gray fence on the elevation views - they block too much of the house

Daniel,

The elevations "fence" views are more for the local Authority. They show the proposed boundary heights in relation to the property and neighbouring properties.

Nice model Gaz. I'm suprised to see that the model uses Scottish construction methods; ie rebated windows instead of the typical English method of windows flush with the external wall face & mastic seal.

DzineTech,

All windows in the UK that I have ever been involved with are rebated slightly from the front face of external leaf "30mm" With 100mm external leaf, and window profiles now 70mm the inside edge/back of the window is flush with the inside edge of the external leaf. Are you thinking about the old Box Sash's? they where located on the back of the external leaf "100mm rebate" on them old things....

For an architect, using AutoCad as a precise layout tool could be handy, but I have found out that the colour raster output from ACAD is crappy compared to a layout tool like InDesign. I haven't tried it from the latest version yet, though. Nice presentation, Gaz.

Anssi,

This is the first time I have done such a thing as combining SketchUp with Acad, so not up to speed on other products/exporters etc.

For a "descent result" I "publish" the layouts from ACAD to a DWF file, then I PDF from the DWF file. Much better quality & much smaller file size too...

Gaz...

dear friend . both kt and podium have the same render engine ( kt engine!!!) . your cars and render are good to see for me 😄 you would have a bright path to future I guess. I wanna ask you to start a topic on car modeling plz . and something : have you ever seen http://www.designerspace.com ? regards

My £0.02 worth...

I believe that this matter is somewhat related to the announcement poll suggestion of arranging certain parts of the forum into separate forums for the varying genre's that SUF users use SU for. I would have expected that for each genre (whether it be Architectural Visualisation, Automobiles, Woodworking, Art etc...) that it would contain the same galleries arrangement that we currently have on our main page as a sub forum within the new genre's forum. I think keeping the galleries within the each genre's forum as sub-forums collates all topics and images in a concise method than perhaps having a forum for each genre which would be used for discussion only and all gallery work for that genre would be found in gallery category with genre sub-forums inside that. I say keep it simple and all anything to do with the genre in the 1 location

I agree that the SU gallery should only contain images exported directly from SU with no image editing. Post processed images in my opinion should have its place within the renders gallery as pushing the render button is only the first step in create a PR/NPR render; so long as any images posted are clear as to how the image was produced ( but the artist posting the image usually gets asked this anyway!)

Nice work! those shapes can be hard to build and it looks like you've got them nailed!

Nice stuff! Total conversions can be a lot of work, and it looks like you guys are well on your way!

Tom,

No offense taken so no apology needed.

You're way to modest fella. Your color sense is wonderful and so pleasant on the eye. When I try, my wife asks if I've been at the medicine cabinet again.

Anyway, I so enjoy and am inspired by what you and others do.

Much to be thankful for and much to learn by stopping by and looking.

Allen

That sums up Windows Vista pretty well.

Nice model 👍 But when you "said blur screen of death" don't you mean blue screen of death? ❓

Thanks 😄 😄

The ones on the Beth Rishon site look good as well. Nice work.

Good morning Tom,

Thank you. The yellow band I think you're referring to is the horizonatal wood siding base. No religious significance. Added to keep the Dryvit off the ground and out of harm's way.
