        To be honest, from sketches to models there still is a gap that needs creativity.
        I also did not judge myself while sketching, which is why some sketches somehow seem illogical.

            Twilight + Krita!
            Searched for and find a waterfall image, rendered the model separately, and matched them.

              Went and had a quick look at Krita. It looks pretty neat will have to give it a try.

                Don't forget that quasi any Ai can import your "architecture alphabet" ! ๐Ÿ˜‰

                Prompt was "integrated house dark forest stormy sky rocky mountain small water falls"

                At night Cafรฉ https://creator.nightcafe.studio

                You must just put a mask on your "Alphabet" (made inside NightCafรฉ)
                mask.jpg

                You can make any number of free images if you take "small" sizes & regulates...
                image following is not retouched! So any retouch can be made! With other IA or the free French FotoSketcher ! ๐Ÿ˜„ (for PC & now quasi for Mac)
                night_cafe.jpg

                Gallery are square images shown but original was like your choice! ๐Ÿ˜‰
                gallery.jpg

                If you want more big size use the free UpScayl (in local) x4 or x8
                So in 1536 x 2304 ๐Ÿ˜‰

                            Maybe my problem is I do not know what โ€œalphabetโ€ is all about. I guess you were trying to explain/share more about combining images.

                            I was not trying to be impolite. If I was, I apologize. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

                                I like your approach Pilou, as there is no need to be precise and these sketches are drills to improve imagination, creativity, and modeling skills (if one models them in their favorite 3D modeling tool. They are rough sketches of "architectural-like" forms and one may consider them as a game for volume/facade design. Creativity may start from everything and I started from the alphabet as they are abstract forms between pure abstraction and geometry.
                                I would like to have your feedback.
                                Also I saw the book you mentioned Pilou and it seems interesting except for the fact that I do not know even one French word!

                                  No problem there are only 1 000 sketches! ๐Ÿ˜‰
                                  It's a support of imagination for imagine architecture from a simple drawing!
                                  I notice this one because it's exactly your process! ๐Ÿ˜‰
                                  "the alphabet as it is an abstract form between pure abstraction and real-life geometry"

                                  I have modelized hundred of them with Moi3D for the fun but the author don't want that i publish them! ๐Ÿ˜žh..

                                        It is getting amazing, Pilou. As you said it seems that AI does not like curves. In fact, as it's "unusual" to have two semi-circle curves in a vertical position as in the letter "B", it iteratively removes those forms. It seems that it could turn into research on what "AI" is or is not capable of.

                                          OK guys, educate me. What are you referring to/mean with the ter โ€œalphabetโ€. I am feeling kind of dumb (maybe it is my age setting in ๐Ÿ˜ฒ ).

                                          BTW: I installed Krita and BforArtists and am trying to learn how to use the. Yes, I know BforArtists is just s different UI for Blender but I do need to learn how to use it correctly. Krita really looks interesting but is going to takes some time to learn (I think) but it looks pretty powerful to me. I have watched a couple of tutorials and did some reading so far. Any tips would be appreciated. ๐Ÿ˜„

                                            @ntxdave;
                                            I think the problem roots in my English. I meant "Letters" (instead of the alphabet). I use the letters as a source of inspiration to produce forms. Then Pilou suggested use of AI image generators, that is kind of amazing but far from my intention. I am intended to make the audience to actively produce forms, from "letters" and I have done some as samples. I think when you observe your let me say watch, actively for 10 min, you will remember much much more compared to short glances for a year. This is the power of being active observer. So generating form is not what I am into. I am into active creativity and form generation.
                                            By the way what Pilou if suggesting is amazing also, although is not my cup of tea.
