nice image LAPX! try soft shadows.. will look more realistic!

Did these tonight for my brother. He has to choose the doors and he gets to build this one. [image: th_stevesstandcurved.jpg]

Great work Allan.

Yes, I will be putting the blade on some time this week when I get a free moment and I'll let it render over the weekend. I'll post an update when I have it.

There was no rendering of this image. It is just SU and some Photoshop tricks. The final skp file was only 1.8 MB. All of the trees, cars, and people were done in PS. We have a nice RPC library here and it adds a lot to the basic SU image - I think.

@unknownuser said: this is indeed something else ... very lekker mxx, very few of the forum users will understand the "very lekker" - maybe the Dutch users...

I'm totally turned on right now...

Thank you gentlemen. If only I could find the time to get into the shop to build some of this stuff.

Ah, glad to hear (it was quite a time ago when I did that so I wasn't sure I remembered well )

Thanks. The final (if we get that far) will have a background I am sure.

Good, I look forward to seeing more too!

Eric, Very nice model. I am experimenting with a technique in photoshop to make my renderings a bit more like Tina Anne Stiles at http://www.illustrationz.com This house would look pretty awesome with her technique applied. If Tina is reading this... How do you get that hand crafted look on your buildings??? If trade secrets are infringed here, I apologize. But you do some awesome work!!! --SECOND REVISION TO THIS POST-- Ok, Piranesi right?

Thanks Peter and Tinanne. The nice comments and suggestions were most appreciated. Danty

@regh said: @krisidious said: are those apratments made out of shipping containers? fantastic... great sketches too... Don't want to get too far OT, but can't resist showing y'all a South Louisiana version of the Container School of Design.. Not a slick as the UK layout, but it did survive Hurricane Katrina. [attachment=0:h5dm1jdd]<!-- ia0 -->4805.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:h5dm1jdd] I wouldn't mind a house I could weld on. If you put some poles at the corners, and some rings over the poles - it could float up and down with the flood waters.

jonathan, it is a genuine worry. i will keep that in mind. thanks. daniel, this is a possibility although the original idea was to have the two end volumes as boxes within the main space. i will not do anything for now since the clients have not seen this new alternative yet. there is always the possibility that they do not like this one either...

Very nice, could we get some eye levels?

killer batrike, Ivica,... kinda tiny render
