      Very impressive. They belong to the best shown here ever. These would have stood well in the recent "Photo or render?" thread.

        Question - what are the metal structures filled with rocks?

        I believe they are Gabion Walls, ala the Dominus Winery by Herzog and DeMeuron. They really have some fantastic light qualities, and I would image around such a large fire pit create quite the cozy, warm atmosphere.

                Hey thanks for the kind words, i'll try answere all comments:

                Thomthom: i belong to the school of "close 'nuff" so i leave fine detail like that out, i'll update though πŸ˜„

                Earth mover: Raw renders attached, and this was a big job, with about 30 houses of different styles and settings, really helped hone my skills πŸ˜„ due to a tight deadline i had to build and render 2 a week (some models were partially built... not this one) but i took my time on this one cos most of the textures here i made myself from pics at cgtextures.

                tom2: sorry for ruining your day

                sepo: i'll upload the whole wall when i get home

                rcossoli: the raw renders should answere that question

                the grass is just overlays from various photos and ornamental grasses from photoshop plant libraries, i'll an image of the photoshop file without the render in it u can see the amount of overlays.

                            Mate this really is stunning stuff! The chop in of the photo is great! I'm not a lover of thatched roofs but really do like the style of the arch too!

                            The gabion mesh looks a bit tight, though may well be what they aim to use though would prefer a bit less metal.

                            Mate these are the first of your renders I've seen - so I will be looking at your other stuff for sure!

                            I seen a lot of renders myself and mate trust when I say these are some of the best!

                            I've just recently been using photo environmenats and forgrounds but nowhere near to the level you have here, I just don't have either the PS knowhow or more so lazy relying to heavily on what comes out of the render!

                            I know we all like to learn from others and I'm looking to learn from you! So i'll throw in a comment to repay early - your level of realism and detail is outstanding, would love to see now just a little bit more touch of mood! Something I know myself I need to improve too!!! I've been looking more and more at arch photography and how well a mood or liveability can be captured.

                            Again stunning stuff!!!!

                              Very, very interesting design. Asian / Polynesian / maybe primitive Japanese in feeling. I love the design concept.

                                    the stone texture in the front is simply unbelievably beautiful.. Maybe I'm asking too much, but care to share the UV settings for that map? It would teach me so much, I am sure!!

                                      thanx, i could share practically everything in this image, as everything is self made from samples on cgtextures, except the back wall stone, now all i need to do is remember to upload once i get home 😞

                                        Very nice as always Free Agent. Are you using the same camera & colour mapping settings in all your renders as their seems to be a consistent style to your raw renders? If you dont mind me asking what do you generally use?

                                        I may be wrong but there seems to be some geometry differences between the 2 raw images; in the bottom there is a white cylinder at the rear end of the ridge and a concrete chimney at the front end, yet they dont appear in the top image, or have I misread the building?

                                          The final images have been updated once since the original post.

                                            yes i generally use the same settings, and the raw and finals are back to front, the top final image is the bottom raw image, sorry about that initially i had liked the back view more so i arranged them like i did with the raw images, but then after updating the front view i placed it on top and didnt do so with the raw renders... still the same renders none the less πŸ˜„
