    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 433

    Edson,
    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.

    Great renders,
    but please try to keep Croatia the lovely country it is, at human scale πŸ˜‰
    Avoid the "Florida/Balearic" syndrom !

    Didier,
    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

          I think you nailed it with your mention of becoming an expert.
          Nicely done.

          Whether they find a life there or not, I think Jupiter should be called an enemy planet.

            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.

                    Now although the reflection and effect looks really good, it also looks like an oil tanker just crashed a few miles out to sea! πŸ˜„

                      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. πŸ˜„
                      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... πŸ˜’

                            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.

                                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... πŸ˜„ )
                                  Other goodies to download as well.

                                  DB
