@Gus-R How do you model stuff like this?
Renders look great.

@ntxdave Thanks Dave. A lot of tedious work and trial and error and my imagination. Started using outside assets since I figured that I can't or don't need to model everything. In this case I saw the sample image and started with a simple Sketchup component for the ceiling and went from there.
Lots of Profile Builder 3 moulding. For the stairs I started with a spiral staircase base made using 1001bit tools. Countless hours later I came up with the (almost) final stairs on the right. I used Fredo's Curviloft for the outer stringer as well as Fredo's bezier tools as well as Profile Builder 3 for some details and the handrails. The balusters were found at 3D Warehouse.
So imagination, knowing basic carpentry or architectural sizes, using Sketchup tools and experimenting, using assets, a lot of tedious work and trying to not call into the perfectionist trap. That and a lot of bugsplats.
Forgot to mention that solids don't have to be perfect solids. You can't notice any little bugs in the rendering.

I wish I had the skill and knowledge to do things like this.

I like the last render a lot and especially the god rays. I did not think about heating It but it makes sense. Perhaps 1 or 3 couple if fireplaces , and a bit more wood, may make the image more homely
-
They are bloody fantastic.

Thanks!
Some extras. OK, I keep trying different things.
-
Nothing to do no where to go oh.

Very sharp scene and render. I had thought the item on the floor was a banana, which would have added a comedic value but 'tis merely a reflection. I very nearly fell off my chair laughing at the "Gormless rich" so thanks for that.
-
@Mike-Amos I actually did a "what's that?" when I first saw "the banana" on the floor.

Stunning work!
