Alphabet to sketch(up)

Dave, I am so pleased to share what I know. This way I myself benefit by being criticised and rectified by others!

About the inclined architecture we had a French one specialized in this!
Claude Parent! (1923 - 2016)
Take a look at "La fonction Oblique" in Google image...

Wow Pilou
Majid, you should really enjoy this stuff. I did a search on Bing and there were some awesome images that really kind of fall into your thought pattern.
-
Definitely a constructive corroboration!
P.S:To give an explanation and make clarification of the inception of the book, let me draw your attention to Bruno Munary's classic book; Design As Art. I read it 3 decades ago but it is still one of the most inspiring books I have ever read.

I found this book (Bruno Munari's book ) very inspiring. I am wondering if anybody else has read it.
p.s. Maybe sharing some images makes sense:
-
I am wondering if anyone has read this rather old yet inspiring book?
-
I am thinking about it but it's a way down the list at the moment, very busy with stuff.
It does look very interesting, insightful. -
It is worth reading IMO. I found it inspiring and influential.
The good news is that the paperback version of my book is also available: https://lnkd.in/dGkuAFXW -
Just looked at the pdf about your book again and I need to go off and play with all the letters some more. I have tried to be too precise which can put restrictions on the building designs.
I am still trying to lear both Krita (for laptop) and Sketchbook for iPad to do my sketching. Hope to be able to post something soon.
-
Good to know that Dave. Can't wait to see your progress.
-
In order not to corrupt this thread, here is a link to a “learning/practicing” thread on the Twilight Render forum Learning Thread.
-
Here is my latest “sketch”. Yes, there are some some glitches.
I am working on modeling this in SketchUp (having some challenges).
-
It definitely is a big challenge, but your most recent sketch depicts a real progress IMO.
-
Well, here is my latest work. The letter Q was the "inspiration" for this sketch and render.
The windows did not turn out exactly as I had hoped. The reflection seem not to appear in all of them.

Nice result mate!!
Do you mind sharing more renders from different angels too? -

At some point, I will. However, some parts were only done for this view so I will have to finish the model.
-
Another practice sketch. Several things wrong that I can to do better before taking building into SketchUp but again learning more about sketching (using Sketchbook on my iPad for my sketches.
Hope you can see which letter of the alphabet is my inspiration.
-
Another nice start.
Needless to declare that there is no obligation to stick to the initial form.
I also have shared samples. In fact as it is believed in "lateral thinking" those sketches are to make us think out of box. -

I am not happy with the results though. I tried to use the trial version of the Skatter plugin but still have a lot of things to learn so I can get tepee landscape and background better. When that happens I will post some new renders.

I believe that there is a grass tutorial on Twilight forum (maybe by Fletch). It is viable in postpro. The result is realistic.
