            Was Feet of Clay a nightwatch book? Wasn't that the one with the golems?

              yup tis the one where the Watch are investigating a murder by a Golem 😉

              from Wiki (explains it better than I can lol)

              @unknownuser said:

              Feet of Clay is the nineteenth Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett, published in 1996. The story follows the members of The Watch, as they attempt to solve murders apparently committed by a golem, as well as the unusual poisoning of the Patrician.

                Ah yea. I remember now.
                Thanks for that list. I'll make sure to go through all of them as "research" for this model. (I've read them all before, but I need to jog my memory. 😳 )

                    Have anyone collected descriptions of AM?

                    Any descriptions of:

                    • Day Watch House
                    • Teacher's Guild
                    • Post Office - I know Going Postal got lots of description - but has anyone written down notes?
                    • Patrician's Palace?

                          I too wish I had found this thread earlier. Keep up the fantastic work, I look forward to your updates. In regards to your previous question regarding the roof, I believe somewhere they make reference to clay tiles being common on the roof tops. I believe its in 'Going Postal' where this reference is made, as the main character is sneaking amongst the rooftops as an assassin would. Hope this helps, if I come up with something else, I'll let you know. 👍 👍

                            Well how about that? I'm reading Going Postal right now. Almost finished in fact. I would be glad to help, but it will come in parts over a few days. I have to finish the book first. 😎

                            Please PM me if you have not heard from me after Christmas.

                                    I'm interested. I have no idea what the book series is about, but the images and models so far are great.

                                    Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

                                      Chris! Mate! You must read it! Get hold of the first two-tree books in the Discworld series and see what you think. (Note: great risk of becoming an addict and laughing out loud while reading.)

                                        Terry Prachert is the author of the Discworld series. Best described as an alternate universe, set somewhat in 18th century style with trolls and dwarfs, and oriental monks, and vampires and very, very droll and yes, laugh out loud funny, while blowing gaping holes in the foibles of modern life.

                                        Here's the picture of the Post Office.

                                          I see you've made it with Vray 😮

                                          Does somebody know if it is possible to unhide edges like this using KERKYTHEA ?? (I am searching for it for a while and haven't found the way 😞 )
                                          ❓ simon

                                            It's a composite of V-Ray clay render and SU Black and White export.
