Yet another beach project
-
The balance between the stylised and realistic elements are great and the level of detail is very impressive, how big is the file for this mode? i didnt notice too mnany textures (that would be of considerable size) but it works well in the overall effect
-
this is great stuff, mateo. the straight SU material looks really good. what did you use for the first 3 images? some style? another application after SU?
cheers.
-
Great stuff, Mateo! I have always enjoyed your style (though my attraction to Dalmatia/Dalmacija may also play some role...
) -
Great renders,
but please try to keep Croatia the lovely country it is, at human scale
Avoid the "Florida/Balearic" syndrom ! -
Thank You all.
ArchiRag,
Its not that big I worked with much bigger files.But when You take into consideration that even the main interiors are covered I am more than satissfied .37 MB
layers 37
groups 123
component instances 419
materials 433Edson,
The first one is two image export- first one with materials and shadows .
second one hidden line without shadows. In Photoshop distort ripple both
placing the second image over first and random the use of eraser and
white brush tools .The technique of the second two images start with a image obtained above
duplicating it. Now that we have one over another we can play again, first
I put watercolour effect on the top one . Since I am using PS 0.7 i Have
noticed that most artistic filters are too harsh and give an unwanted
uniform effect instead of handrawn effect. In order to soften that effect
and give it an more realistic feel I play with transparency , eraser tool ,
smudge tool.
That would roughly be that, there are some other little points but if anyone
is interested in a complete step by step process or a tutorial just ask.@didier bur said:

Actually the project is in Montenegro, but anyway the comment stands.
Croatia is beautifull because in the last 45 years of the comunist regime
nobody invested in anything. So the beautifull nature was preserved to
this day. Now people want to valorise to its fullest their piece of plot.
Now ,we architects and designers are having a tremenduous problem in
coping with the new situation - the open market . On one hand one can
choose to compromise with the client and of course the existing legistlature
or to be without work. But thats another topic.Cheers,
Mateo -
Fun fantastic project and really nice presentation. Wish I could work on beach probjects.
-
Thanks Susan.
-
I think you nailed it with your mention of becoming an expert.
Nicely done. -
Great project and modelled/presented very well.
I like the 6th image down taken from out to sea. It is unusual having the water in front like that.
-
Hehe...
If you don't mind, Mateo, I played a little bit with one of your images;
-
Not at all Gai, thats cool, what did You use to do that.
-

Now although the reflection and effect looks really good, it also looks like an oil tanker just crashed a few miles out to sea!
-
Actually it looks like the oil tanker crashed just there, but
its a good effect anyway, not for this kind of SU output but
generally.
Thanks Gai, ill download it now. Who knows what other purposes
it my be good for in future. -
Yes, I know it does not really "fit" the original image - I was just playing...
Also, it was just a few second playing - the oil tanker effect is most probably due to the fact...
-
Good lordy Mateo, these are really beautiful!
-
I am starting a new client relationship which I think may call for a direct SU approach without additional rendering. Your style for this project will be in the back of my mind as I start on this project. What you have done is very spare but effective.
-
mateo... i just tried out squirlz... actually i had it for a lonnng time.. never really got a chance to use it...
hope u dont mind..

Hi Jenu,
Waaay better than mine (smaller waves - not so "oily").
-
Hi,
Apart from Squirlz Water Reflections, I've found another tool here: http://www.photofiltre.com/
Go to "Freeware" menu and click "Reflet".
It's free, but for basic reflections (and it's french too, although A. da Cruz sounds Spanish to me... )
Other goodies to download as well.
