WIP - Appartments in Belfast- Update 2007-10-26

quite nice Paul...
I'm not sure what what is old... just kidding but that's the point, new structures taking the que from the old in their form... but making better use of space or view.
and then there is your modeling... fantastic! the detail is superb... simple, elegant... as usual, great job.

Hi, Kris
Thanks, This is just the existing streetscape, the proposal is still being designed. I've already done 5 versions from a simple block model to an 'almost' working design but until the design is signed off I cant really show it. -
Did an animation last night, 2700 Tiff's at 2048x1536 totalling 15.8Gb!! It only took about 9 hours.
I'm squeezing them into an avi at the moment and I'll post a version on YouTube in a bit.
-
Here you go, one animation.
It has that damn shadow flashing as the camera passes through the shadow of the street lights but other than that its OK for a WIP. -
Very impressive, Paul! It's going to be exiting to see more deveoped phases (with the new ly designed stuff)
-
amazing project, Paul
-
Paul, that is really looking great. Do you animate on a path?
What do you have for equipment? Only 9hrs! Do you think there is an exporting time difference between .jpg and .png? How many scene tabs do you have for this project so far. I think I've realized that I need more scene tabs. When I made the scenes longer in Premiere, that was when things started getting jumpy. Do you think that's what it is?

Wow...Great work! Excellent textures and spot on details in the model. And you worked from photos and no plans...thats incredible!
I just watched your ani...great job! I hate what Youtube does to the clarity of uploaded content
. I bet it looks unbelievable played directly on a computer

Thanks for the info and the screen shot
I think I went wrong with setting scene transitions to 8. I think I'll go higher next time.I have

It took about 24hrs to export from SU. Does that seem long or is that about normal?Your tutorial helped me so much while I was developing the animation. I'm looking forward to the next steps {hint, hint}

Some updated images:

Fantastic images (modelling)!
Just as if I were there... -
Great modelling, but also shows how the right textures really make a big difference.
Nice work Paul. -
Hi Paul, great work!
I was wondering if you could elaborate a bit on how you do your roads. Are all of the street markings modeled, textured, and lines hidden? Did you use some sort of a ruby for laying down all the dashed lines?
I am very impressed with the level of detail; it is just beautiful.
-
Done a quick 'How-To' over lunch, hope its clear enough:
-
Nice work Paul .... 'counting bricks'! You must be seeing double by now

-
Nice tut, Paul!
I hope you don't mind that I have "copied" it into the tutorials forum, too!BTW - is there a special reason why you have not simply just draped the lines into the road surface?
-
Thanks Paul! Great ideas in that tutorial; I really appreciate it!
-
Gai,
That distant thudding sound you can hear just over the horizon is the sound of some violent head on desk action here in Belfast!
I don't use sandbox for creating surfaces and I completely forgot it has the other tools for draping and stamping!!
Now if you don't mind I'm going back to reshaping my desk.
-
Well, Paul, I did not mean to hurt your desk...
anyway, this way you can at least put the lines (quite many polys) on a layer and turn them off while modelling...
