An intriguing project! I notice that nature has had no trouble making it's own contribution in the form of the ivy growing up the tower. The first render showing (I think) sunrise is excellent.

You're very kind HornOxx. I'm certainly no plumber or electrician but Sketchup has been invaluable in helping me to get things done and, indeed, understand why I was doing it! A slimmed down version of the Layout file I used is attached. SU Layout 2015 version.layout

Really nice render. Well done!. The pebbles are having a strong bump map that makes them somehow unrealistic. except that everything is done carefully.

Thanks majid!

thank you

That's a render? Wow!

@bryan k said: Is the second one ceramic? Yes. I didn't make the brown color dark enough to match the glaze they used on them because the detail would disappear. Things like these aren't really all that complicated to model but because of their small size, the brown one is less than 4 in. tall and the glass one is less than 3, it takes a bit of a different approach in SketchUp to get the smooth surfaces. And thank you!

@pbacot said: Very nice. I thought you'd captured the vintage photo look beautifully for the era. Indeed he did.

That turned out great!

Thank you guys! I realized there are some issues with the lamps, but it took 40 hours to render, so, I'm not ready to remake it:)

Brilliant as always!

Good luck. FWIW, post processing doesn't have to be all that complex. Get the hang of working with layers and how to blend them. That'll be most of the battle I think.

Impressive! I hadn't looked at a Pano before and have to say that it's a whole different level of presentation. Intrigued by the substantial roof construction - is it for a helipad?

That is way cool!

Very nicely done.

Just so you know, it's easier for SketchUp to handle a lot of raw geometry (many faces in the same context), than a lot of groups/components. Having a lot of raw geometry will make the file bigger and less editable, but it will be much faster to display.

It's right across the road from Princeton U NJ They say "see youse" when you are finished. Good greasy food too. dtrarch

Love it!

Wundervoll...

Thanks garystan...
