New Housing Estate

[olishea]

Quick b+w renders of an estate I'm working on. Please excuse random tree to the right of the image, I was a bit rushed and made some mistakes!

I'm texturing the model at the moment it's such a big site.

made up of render, line overlay and negative line overlay

Very refreshing massing study, and nice substitution for a clay render. Lots of potential for this. Great stuff.

Changed crap foliage:

wow im impressed im very curious as to how you created the fake clay style, is it purely a 2D output form SU and then some nifty PP or have you rendered it in some clever way and then added some more nifty PP, I would be very interested in using this style for some of my designs!
From what I cam guess you have done a render then overlayed a layer showing visible lines?

ha tell me about it, its always a bastard when that happens, as a general rule I always quickly highlight and copy my text before I post on any forum or email, its much worse when you have spent a decade writing and you loose it you dont have any willpower to do it all again lol!

Thanks for taking the time to do a tut most appreciated!

i just wrote a huge tutorial but it messed up when i posted it......i wasn't logged in apparently. i spent like 10 minutes writing it

i'll do a step by step tutorial with images...much easier.

the rendering and post process takes less than 15 minutes.
