Thanks guys. Matisse would work but I was thinking Bierstadt.

Hey Gus, nice indeed mate. I wonder what it would look like with https://fotosketcher.com/

Thanks Mike and Rich. I did this version pretty quick. I have a lot of spare parts. I'm settled on a weathered look and tall grass for most everything. Was tinkering with it some more and finding small things to fix or change. [image: 1745464475333-gus-robatto-conrail-sd45-resized.jpg]

Still some extraneous place holders here, movement though. [image: 1745441762893-4-1000s-2174-x-1983-32s-gpu-resized.png]

Rebooted Sketchup, lost items returned..... [image: 1743877829782-9-1000s-3085-x-1234-4m-24s-gpu-resized.png]

Actually, not the wrong thread at all, I just missed stating which render program.

That’s some fancy digs.

@marked001 said in Pond House: Really love those first sketchy ones. Is that a sketchup style? Thanks. That's "pen sketch" in D5 Render.

@leonmetalowiec Thank you

@Krass Thanks for your interest. Which settings menu are you referring to? The one in Rayscaper. [image: 1739790164901-f1216d55-1a08-4a83-8103-75e8c5cd09e9-image.png]

@Box No worries mate all good ,and yes it is a simple model. I was just being lazy. I just was curious to see if there was an aesthetic solution to make it compliant

Chat GTP critiquing its own image

Ta folks, it is the ai thing. My design, mea culpa. Similar in concept to the hotrod I did some yonks ago but oriented towards track days. Working on a studio setup for Rayscaper so hopefully some renders then.

@L-i-am Very 'Zen'.

@jscottsmith Very informative. Do you use Blender3D for modeling?

@Gus-R In school, we used to do similar with cut up baked bean tins and styrene (I think) washers. Did the job well enough. The washers are pretty durable and come in lots of sizes.

@Bryan-K Thanks Bryan. I post this stuff at the D5 "community" forum and barely get any likes and the occasional "suggestions" from the peanut gallery.

@Rich-O-Brien This one is from "Central's Book of Homes" from Central Lumber Company which I got from Internet Archive which is still down. I saved five of them in PDF form before Internet Archive ran into trouble.
