Ceiling rose?
-
Hey everyone,
I've had a look in the warehouse but couldn't find anything. Does anyone here have a ceiling rose component? Would really appreciate if you could share. Re-creating a room in my house to practice rendering -
Cgtextures.com > Ornaments > Round. They have a bunch or ceiling roses there.

There are a few 3rd party ones on specialist sites - but most are $$ and in 3ds format etc.
You are unlikely to get an exact match anyway.
Why not simple draw an approximation if this section and use follow me around a circle?
Here's a VERY quick example - you can use more segments in the circular path and get the molding right If there are things like leaves mold a simplistic one and use rotate-copy to place then around it etc. Don't all too much detail as it's unlikely you'll ever see it close up anyway. There's a thread about making moldings around a bathroom ceiling that has some good advice in it - search it out... -
And sorry: I was somehow thinking of textures, not models...

TIG - ah why didn't I think of it like that some reason I imagined something like that being difficult to model so was just going to grab one online..but your way is the obvious answer!
Gaieus - haha no worries, still good textures for this sort of thing so ive noted -
Textures could be a good solution to a complex shape.
Make a very simplified form and 'project the textured material' onto it... This is just a very simple disk with the image used as a texture. -
Ah yes, good textures can easily substitute complex geometry - at least from a distance - with proper bump or especially displacement mapping.
