Tom and Pete's Sears collection
-
Thanks for your answer pete, yes i meant immediate terrain. There was a full article on vue in BD magazine. They reckon because the environments are so realistic and intuitive to set up you can spend more time on the architecture instead of trees/grass/landscape etc. The main criticism was that the UI is difficult and sometimes overbearing.
So how long does it take to cook (take the first snowy image for example) once you have set up the parameters? im guessing you are using at least quad core.
-
Oliver, I agree on the UI being a little challenging at times, especially the function editors.
The Snow scene was rendered at a 16:9 format 1600x900, 300dpi it rendered in 17 minutes on an i7 (8 cores), I used an exterior radiosity atmosphere (slower rendering), Vue is pretty fast, but if you are not up to speed with the render options and atmospheric editor then it can either be blitz quick with crappy shadows or extremely slow with more than needed detail. -
thats awesome to know. As soon as I get time, I am going to try and play with it because integration with vray would be awesome, especially when seeing the quality of your images. Thank you for the explanation..very much appreciated

S-O to the L O,
Bring it.
Big scoops of plenty awesome here.
I was on rout to Baton Rouge and kicked some tall cold and golden there in the Big D.
The town action was quite on.
Ate some killer poor boys, Jack bird, oysters at... Ah...
The S and D Oyster bar.
You know that Jack joint?
And what is a "Bow Head?"
Heard that slung around there a time or two.
Seemed top be about curves and there hair, but any illumination you can bring is on.

Why just sell them as Vue or Max components? Why not offer them in the home market? Bring in someone to do a simple set of construction documents and charge for the whole package?

Thought I'd post a straight skippy before hitting it with the DWC tech...The Chateau from 1934:
-
Beautiful, Tom.
-
Thanks, Daniel, these little neighborhoods are fun to landscape (using Tomsdesk growies, of course :`)
This morning was the first I'd heard of fotosketcher (see here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=21172), thank you, Jon, thank you very much...I think it will be a nice addition to the layer mix I've been using (this one is two fotosketcher output layers and a couple of edge and shadow layers from SU):
-
The Chateau 1934.
Textured, setup, and rendered with Vue.
-
Looks good. Keep 'em coming.
-
Amazing. I love the vegetation and the vine covered archway. I don't understand why they built them with the long shutters all the way across the front.
-
This last one "Chateau 1934" is a really amazing render. Great work pete!!!
-
Great stuff guys, thrilling work indeed
-

Slate shingles are a beautiful choice Pete, nice!
Another skippy...the Puritan, 1922:
_fan, I just export a rather large jpeg from SU, then in PSP copy a new layer above the original...setting it to "soft light" and about 40-55 transparency. Just punching up the color a bit. I sometimes also add (as with this one) a burn layer using an SU profile edge only "hidden line" (no shadows) jpeg export, adjusting the transparency as desired. -
And the DWC:
-
Here's another skippy (two to go :`) The Hathaway, 1921:
-
I'd seen Sear's Houses mentioned elswhere and had always assumed that you just got the plans. But looking around after seeing these images it would appear that you got a kit.
Is that correct ?, did these houses come ikea style in a big 'box' ?
-
This should answer your question: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sears_Catalog_Home
-
I wonder how the result come if draw bldg.in snow surrounding with native SU (non-rendering)?
If u have some, pls show us.
for this pic, I have no doubt
nice design and excellent rendering.
