        Thanks for the help, when it comes time to texture this, these will really help.

          I use that ivy generator, it's absolutely superb. Currently rendering a scene with ivy, will post it when I go into work on monday.

            Thanks for the help Pete. Some of the example screenshots look amazing! Do you know a way I could use this without having the ability to import/export .obj? (I have the free version of sketchup 6)

                        The size of the stones at near top of the arch look way small. It looks like it could fall any minute.

                          That was intentional to give it a worn down old appearance.

                            yes but in the olden days they build them properly or they didnt stand up at all! and i think your would have collapsed a long time ago...

                            but hey, thats what artistic license is for πŸ˜‰

                              Here is and update, including a reference photo which a am mostly modeling after, but I will change a few things to my liking.


                              In Sketchup


                              V-ray render

                                Exactly...arch is same thickness all around, otherwise it would collapse.

                                  I think I will just make all the little stones near the top bigger, and just ignore the fact that my arch would collapse in real life πŸ˜„

                                    Part of believeable render is that it resembles real and correct. If your arch does not read correct it will always poke you in the eye...πŸ˜‰

                                      Well I will do what I can to fix the problem, If you want to have a go fixing the problem, here is the Arch.

                                          Here is part of the model I have textured, I rendered it in V-Ray attempting a evening look. I have included the visopt settings at the bottom, renamed as a ruby script.


                                          Evening shot
