Barn for a local tree farm...
-
Here's a project I've been having fun with. It's a barn for a commercial tree farm. It's a bit more 'upscale' than the traditional barns of our region. The form though is fairly vernacular. It will be used for storing equipment plus have a work area, an office, washroom, and lunch room. There will be a loft over top of the office end of the barn. The rendering was created from a simple podium render. Then in Xara Xtreme Pro I added the sky, bushes, text and matting effect. Another thing I tried was to add a depth of field effect by blurring the far end of the barn. To do that a just did a gaussian blur on a copy of the podium render and then blended it with the other non-blurred podium render. While the result isn't photorealistic I do think it will help my client get a good idea of how it could look.

That sounds like a good technique Ross, I'll try that. Nice render.
-
It looks good Ross. The image has a nice feel to it.
Did you add the grass and road surface in xara also?
-
Thanks guys. The grass and landscaping against the barn was quickly added in Xara. Likewise in Xara I added some character to the featureless lollypop trees I had behind the building. The roadway was however in the model & the Podium render. The other thing I added in Xara was some minor highlights and shadowing to the rather featureless greenhouse I had modelled.

very detailed render! i like your interpretation of the sliding barn door at the entry. I would say though that the cupola looks a little tall or skinny in proportion, although I obviously don't know what its relationship to the plan is.

Ross, I wanted to know where you get your skies from. The one you used for this looks great for this scene!

Very nice Ross!
