Someday you're gonna have to show us your Masterpiece Factory. I suspect you have a large number of computers set up to automate the creation of these fantastic models. Fess up, all you do is push a button, right?
-
Stunning once again John.

For months I've been accusing him of working at ILM

Thanks Lads,
That sounds good Steve but imagine the fun we would miss! There's nothing complex to my models unlike Yours and Eric's, just repetitive bread and butter stuff for SU.

Change of pace from Voysey, eh? Very nice, as always. It's always a treat to click on your threads and see the latest creation.

John,
Very nice atmosphere on this one . A good feeling for the place and the day. I find myself studying the parts for the hidden story.Peter

Totally agree. Lovely John. Inspiring as usual.

Thanks for the kind words everyone
as long as I'm not boring you all.
Jeff, I really enjoyed modeling Mr. Voysey's works, unfortunately after ~30 there was insufficient material available to carry on. I would be doing his houses an injustice to try to create the remaining using really bad images and guess work!
Maybe in the future, if my rendering improves I could revisit and make up a collection!
It was great to focus on one subject rather than bouncing around with no direction.Looking for suggestions! folks.

Never-built portion of R. Hearst's Wyntoon in northern California. Designed by one of my favorite architects, Julia Morgan. There are more elevations like this out there, but no complete design unfortunately.
The Tea House at Wyntoon is likely what they would have looked like when built.
-
These are some views of Cragside not too far from where I am - similar style = - a good project for Tadema too - he lives within an afternoon's visit
-
I didn't think any place in the UK looked like that (Bavaria).
-
This house - Cragside - was built just over a century ago for Lord Armstrong - a local 'nob', inventor, engineer and all round philanthropist - although he was responsible for a lot of 'weaponry' !...
Cragside was the first house in the world to have electric lights - he built his own hydro-electric power-plant and his acquaintance Joseph Swan had just invented the incandescent light-bulb down the road... also Mosley Street a few miles from here in the city center was also the first street in the world to have electric street-lights installed - around here we used to be the equivalent to this generation's 'Silicone Valley' - but alas no more... -
Not forgetting the hydraulic accumulator

Jeff and Bob, thanks. two interesting buildings! I will have to search for more images of these. The Wyntoon house looks great wish I could render in that style.
TIG, I've been considering Cragside since you first mentioned her, I have a lot of images but only a small floor plan, although Google Earth should help.
I was planning stopping off at Cragside when returning from Scotland last summer but the kids were creating so much I gave it a miss. Got them home quicker so I could kick their heads in!!!
thanks
John
