        Very nice, perhaps a bit more landscaping though. Looks quite wild at the moment.

          The real Gropius House is white. Is there a reason your render isn't like the real house?

          There is also a large tree right in front of the house from the angle of the rendering.

            I decided against the tree as it blocked a lot of the house and cast dark shadows. The color of the house is effected by angle and decay of sunlight.

              Looks great, Solo. If you don't mind me asking, which grass and atmosphere did you use?

              I should get Vue 7 tomorrow or Monday 🎉

                The grass is a texture function with a mix of weed and scragly grass for an ego-system spread over 90% of texture.

                The Atmosphere is the default spectral with a few stratos clouds and the 'ambient - sun' mix at about 45% to ambient.

                The render itself which was done at 1280 x 900 (ish) 300dpi took 12 minutes 4 cores.

                I plan to get a few textures together and make them available soon, as there seems to be a lack of good arch textures around online for Vue.

                  Awesome render Pete! I would be interested in your Vue materials for sure!

                        So you're actually rendering at a higher res than you put in, or how does this work exactly?

                        There's a 'velvety' quality about your Vue stuff. That your doing, or Vue's?

                          300 dpi only really applies to printing as most monitors only show 72 or96 dpi (I think, please correct me if I'm wrong), I use it instead of rendering a huge image and down scalling for clarity.
                          The 'velvety' appearance is due to my settings, I choose sharp anti aliasing and smooth textures, I could use 'crisp' textures but my preference is smooth.

                            You be correctimondo: mac is 72, pc is 96. Which in itself is an approximation as 'dots per inch' is preety old in this world, the old one that is. (australia and the rest of the metric world). We have to start thinking in pixels, or was that pixies?

                                Solo, another amazing render to add to an already brilliant catalogue of work 😎
                                How are you finding the GSU integration with Vue?
                                I could see myself going the SUPro path so i may export to Vue, but before making the investment on both I'm doing a bit of research.
                                Again, awesome work mate 😉

                                  Nice rendering Pete, I'll have to get over to PPB and add this model to my "architectural classics" model library.

                                            pete congratulate you for your work home from bridge of Amancio Williams (in the section of Masters in your Web), is an Argentine architect who here is very important in the modern stage and I look at the faculty, I think it is the work argentina more representative of the modern movement, which hurts today is almost destroyed.
