I didn't know elven architects were still around a hundred years ago i thought they vanished at the same time as the orcs, ogers, dwarf, leprechauns and things like that....maybe the hungarians kept one prisoner just in case they needed an impressive building....do you think they'd lend me one..... Now seriously that reminds of so many films and games with mithological beings.And to be a bit on topic...that guy has serios talent. Cheers..i'm gonna go look fo the pot of gold now.

What can I say putnik... Many many thanks for such a detailed response. Now thanks to you and everyone that has written in this topic i'm closer to real world . I know that the world of archviz is very hard and i don't want to do that work full time. In the future i want to be an architect, but for now, as i've been offered an small work as illustrator i look for advice in you, and you have been really helpfull. So, thanks again!

Ah.... Who are you? GoD

I missed this thread (lots to read which I will), but I just drop in to say that I really love the style of the website Pete, and the content is well....you know, awesome material !

Well,they are talking about archaeological reconstructions here. A reconstructionof a ruinous building however is not only about reconstructing what you have now but what you could have hundreds or thousands of years ago - and you cannot photograph that. I could however find an exciting idea here to create bump (and/or) displacement maps for renderings. This is all - after all - about the surfaces, not the buildings themselves.

@chris fullmer said: Thats very encouraging Tinane. I can get in at the $35 student price, so I think I might join and see how it goes. I'm no architectural renderer at this point in my life, but it is something I aspire to be able to do. You're work has always been great inspiration too Tinane. My parents live in Ivins Utah which is right near Kayenta where I saw did some rendereings. My parents are very good friends with the Ence's so I was happy to sort of know the person who had done such nice renderings for them and that region. Very nice indeed! Chris Fullmer Chris, sorry I missed this. Thank you for the compliments! They are very much appreciated. I hope you join and I will look for your work at the next AIP!!!

clothe them soon, solo, yours maybe better though i dont think you can beat its composition

I thought it was a bit odd, but they did the same thing the first time they published me last year, with that Pavilion for Oblivion thing. I received the impression that the authors of other projects were actually interviewed in some cases. But I'm not complaining...just remarking on the "surprise." After all, if the webcounter can be trusted on Friday approximately 50,000 AIA members at least opened an issue graphically headlined by one of my projects. I wasn't looking for any publicity when I started working on this "fantasy," but I'm happy enough for the recognition.

you are going the other way round watkins now it is even more difficult for me to build it

It reminds m of one of those things where you ahve to stop and ask yourself "do people really do this? or are my eyes decieving me?"

and much more beauty than Fredericks ) though Fredericks logo is unbeatable

I*ve just received an update from microsoft:SP3- I installed it and all is just fine.It seems(for now)to have a faster start and shutdown.

The most sense I've seen written about education either side of the Atlantic in a very long time. UK Governments of either persuasion have bent over backwards to avoid addressing the real problems (if they ever realised what they were in the first place) for the last 30+ years. In the '70's they said that the problem was with the bottom 25%...that the bright kids were as good as any in the world. So do they deal with the bottom 25%? No they turn the entire education survice upside down and have continued to do so on a regular basis ever since. They are about to do so yet again, with yet another change in the exam system....as if testing kids every 5 minutes actually teaches them anything...except how to pass exams.

now there are 9021 memebers..21 people in 24 hours...good numbers

I will deffinatly try a Deuchars, and the Jeckyll and Byde pub looks great... writing it down so I don't forget it. Thanks guys. At 12:15 swedish time we're off.

It's aweosme, but hardly original..i saw on Discovery a few years ago something very similar but that would be built in Japan. Anyhow i hope they're practical it would make a good solution for overcrowding by crowding peoople ecologically
