                      hankering for Spring already?

                        Thank you everyone.
                        Lee, the stream was PS in, then the grass layered from a couple of textures. The bushes are PNG's placed into the model, I can post the Sketchup view if you would like.
                        numbthumb, I knew there was something distracting about the lady, I just could'nt put my finger on it ๐Ÿ˜ณ
                        TIG, there is a slight shadow from the lady, maybe not as pronounced as it should be. The "dogs arse" lol was a quick addition to Csaba's post. I've just realized that the Banqueting Hall in Jesmond Dene was part of Lord Armstrongs estate!
                        Peter, you mentioned spring, I was just thinking the same this morning.

                        Off to see what I can do with a little house in Rothbury!

                              Would love to live in that area (I'm so tired of Michigan). The girl does seem to stand out a bit from the scene.

                              One thing I was wondering about, with this and other scenes you've posted, is the weathering of the building walls. They are obviously old, yet there is no weathering or staining. Just too clean. Wouldn't there be some rust stains where metal meets the stone, such as downspouts and such? Some water and rain stains from years of wind and weather? Not really a criticism, it's just something I would expect to see on old stone buildings. You know me, I'm a bit of nitpicker.

                              I'll go away now

                                I did like the stains at the bottoms of the walls where water has splashed dirt on them.

                                  Hello Steve, I see your point and agree to some extent. It's never been my intention to portray "old" buildings, after all
                                  they were once new. I always add a little weathering but to age a scene is a job in itself. The aim is to show the building in the same light as it was in years gone by, maybe in it's prime. If I could find some old fashioned 2d people
                                  they would be more appropriate.

                                  Csaba ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
                                  thanks

                                    Another beautiful image, John.
                                    The paving stones areound the corner of the building appear too flat, and their shadows seem to be in the wrong direction (based on the shadows on building and bridge, sun is to the left, correct?) ; perhaps rotate the texture 180 degrees?

                                    My avatar is an anachronism.

                                      John, another beauty. Your Photoshop work is really top notch, with such attention to detail.

                                        Hey John,

                                        Sorry, didn't realize you were presenting the scene as it was back in it's heyday, the modern girl threw me off.

                                        See, the problem is, with your stuff I've gotta work really hard to come up with a criticism. You don't make it easy for me ๐Ÿ˜†

                                          Daniel, thanks. I see the texture problem now it's pointed out. This begs the question, how did you spot that with Lay Low Lil in the picture ๐Ÿ˜‰
                                          Dale, thanks. I've attatched the PNG so you can take a closer look lol.
                                          Steve, the girl was a mistake in hindsight, that's why I never usually put people in a scene ( I'm useless at it )
                                          thanks again
