      John,
      You've outdone yourself this time! Quite inspiring to see someone able to excel after it seems there is no room for it!

      Curious does this model bog-down SU?

      I like the grayscale image. That could be taken to an engraving style nicely.

      BTW I received the Voysey Monograph myself for Christmas!

        Thank you Peter, hope you enjoy Voysey. The model did not slow down one single bit, even without layers. Never turned any geometry off and no plugins used for drawing. The only plugin used was Thom's brilliant Cleanup3, I was really suprised.

              πŸ‘ these last two are more impressing.
              could you tell me what was the renderer and post pro if any?

                  Irwan, sorry for the late reply. I used V-ray to render her. The PP was PS, grass and two foreground trees, curves, colour balance ect.
                  Thanks everyone.

                          MartinPH has got a competitor. Haven't noticed any new things from him for a while since he posted Castle Howard.

                            Thank you,
                            Anssi, Castle Howard was brilliant, no comparrison to Fonthill, she's much more accurate! David has no competition from me (I take my hat off). I would have loved to have seen Castle Howard rendered, it's a shame he's never posted more.
                            take care

                              Think how much time would have been saved if the original architect would have used SketchUp.

                                    Sorry - I just had to mess around with the black and white one. Hope you don't mind!

                                      That tower really shines Tom! While John's reminds me of an etching, this makes me think of an old black and white movie. A dark and dramatic one. Hey this story could make a good movie. It could be a comedy though. Called "What Could Go Wrong?"

                                        That was pretty much what I had in mind. It's invariably great fun to mess around with other people's images. I tend to learn quite a bit while doing so.

                                            Roger, It certainly makes you appreciate these magnificent old buildings more! From first draft to the final stone, given what tools/instruments they had at the time. Imagine the maths; fractions using an abacus πŸ˜’
                                            Peter, sounds like a local authority project! Imagine the stone masons crying with laughter Monday morning, oh well another seven years work lads.
