nice..loving the scale model look...that's great. how about some DOF to really make it look small?
trees are really cool. -
Very nice I love the scale model look. Here is one of my real models using mahogany, Walnut, and Maple veneers. I like yours better, but there is nothing quite as rewarding as making a physical model.

Thanks again guys!!
Marked001:
Mate I tried for a bit of DOF but obviously didn't set the Fstop low enough I think I had it around 5! I just started the two renders and when to bed! May not have scaled the model down enough from actual size to scaled size too.
Phil:
Mate that looks nice. I know what you mean about making a scale model. I once gave it a shot but didn't get any further than making the trees - which I admit came out very nice! Found just the right species of twigs for them and then scraped areas of bark back to give them a nice mottled bark look and had lots of fun then applying the foliage and trimming it back to get it looking real.
If my memory serves well I remember looking at some of your wood work images (I could be mistaken there as said it was years ago) and remember you were quite a craftsman? If I am correct I've actually still got one or two of your images here on my HD somewhere as a few pieces really stood out!

Mate I've actually invited Google to look at the option of including them in the package of SU in lieu of the existing crappy block ones! Still waiting for a response! They are seriously good if I can say that myself!
-
Thanks Richard I think you have me mixed up with someone else on the woodworking. I have not done any woodworking since high school, other than model making.
I do hope your cars are included in SU out of the box.

Oh??? I figured it was you phil!! So who was it that years ago had a great section on tips to efficient modelling on their website?
Yes I hope one day Google take up the option as I think much of their included components just add to the toy feel of SU!!

Mate I got a response that they were looking at it but no news for a while which is a shame!!!
-
Richard,
Yes it is a shame , I agree with You.
Well at least You got a courteous reply.
The reason I asked this in the first place was that in fact I anticipated that kind of reaction.I will never understand this kind of indifference.
I mean they can only gain from this or maybe I am not seeing the bigger picture, well anyway

I mean they can only gain from this or maybe I am not seeing the bigger picture, well anywayYes I'm not at all sure why they package SU with such low quality content really - I know they would like to keep it fairly basic though I think it is likely one of the reasons it might be considered a toy modeller! I think it would be interesting to understand how many users actually use the content that is native to SU.
-
Oh yes, your low poly cars would be so much better than the current SU provided content.
Maybe they hold off because you used particular car brands.And about the rendering: a fine job you did there again mister.
I love the way you mixed the scale model details in (like the wire trees).
The design 'an sich' is quite playful and the volumetrics are interesting.Thanks for sharing. Always a pleasure to open a thread of yours.
-
Thanks mate appreciate your support!
I love using the wire trees, I'd love to make some other types of model scale trees though find it hard to note any other good examples!
