It is just fantastic Roberto, I can't say anymore than that!

You have excellent imagination and modelling skills.

Looks fantastic, Roberto. Especially considering you modeled it from that photograph.

Bucklen theater ::: VRay for SketchUp render - 001

My first render with VRay for SketchUp
No change any texture. Only one light.

Great modeling . Is the roof completely finished? (when the main roof meets with others doesn't seem to jive, or is it just me?)

With the light i have put is not easy to see. I have to learn to make textures in VRay for SketchUp, sorry!

Duplicating the buildings...

Oh, thanks! I'm a little obsessive with the cleanliness of my models.

I spends several hours to clean my models. I do not like lines leave laying around but it just gives me more or less 10-15% less sides in my models

Masterfull work Roberto.

The images of the progress stages are very instructive.

I have a few questions:

I live in Indiana, about 90 miles from Elkhart. How did you come upon this fine building in the middle of Indiana? Was this a project you decided to do because you found and liked the buiilding or did someone from Elkhart or Indiana Historic Landmarks Foundation ask you to reconstruct it? By the way, I think it is a shame such a fine building was replaced by a parking lot, especially after being placed on the register of historic places. This sort of thing happens way too much.

How did you model the human figures the eagles and other complicated decorative features?

Thank you for sharing this great model and sharing your work process- very instructional and very inspirational.

I tend to search on Google Images

yes, i found the photo, I liked the building and constructed the building only on this photo (I think it is funny to imagine how is the rest part of the building ).

I agree with you, but progress is progress

I do not model or persons or sculptures

Thanks, Jim Smith!
