      About time I check in with the current status; considering it's a WIP thread.

      Render51.png

      Doing some texture tests as well as experimenting with V-Ray setup to pick all the small details.
      Next I'll tweak some of the building details before I start applying all the textures.

      If anyone got some good resources for roof that would fit I'll love to hear. I don't want the copper like thing it has now.

      (Should I add this to the original post, to keep it all collected in one place?=

          WOW, now that I've seen yours updated, I might finshing off the rest of mine.
          Sitting them beside each other, they look like they are meant to be in the same town so I think that's a good thing.

          Do you have any more resource for the Pseudopolis Yard?

              Afraid not.
              Though, I'm reading Guards Guards atm taking notes of any visual description of the city. And afterwards I'm reading Men at Arms.


              Closeup render to test the textures for detail scenes.

                          Was Feet of Clay a nightwatch book? Wasn't that the one with the golems?

                            Feet of Clay is the nineteenth Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett, published in 1996. The story follows the members of The Watch, as they attempt to solve murders apparently committed by a golem, as well as the unusual poisoning of the Patrician.

                              Ah yea. I remember now.
                              Thanks for that list. I'll make sure to go through all of them as "research" for this model. (I've read them all before, but I need to jog my memory. 😳 )

                                  Have anyone collected descriptions of AM?

                                  Any descriptions of:

                                  • Day Watch House
                                  • Teacher's Guild
                                  • Post Office - I know Going Postal got lots of description - but has anyone written down notes?
                                  • Patrician's Palace?

                                        I too wish I had found this thread earlier. Keep up the fantastic work, I look forward to your updates. In regards to your previous question regarding the roof, I believe somewhere they make reference to clay tiles being common on the roof tops. I believe its in 'Going Postal' where this reference is made, as the main character is sneaking amongst the rooftops as an assassin would. Hope this helps, if I come up with something else, I'll let you know. πŸ‘ πŸ‘

                                          Well how about that? I'm reading Going Postal right now. Almost finished in fact. I would be glad to help, but it will come in parts over a few days. I have to finish the book first. 😎

                                          Please PM me if you have not heard from me after Christmas.
