      If anyone is interested, the castle shell is now on the 3d Warehouse: waiting to be validated by the Google Earth team.

      since the surrounding forest hides part of the walls, I could not make all textures; then I decided to assign only flat colours to the whole structure.

        I am afraid (and really sorry to predict) that it will be rejected for "incomplete texturing" I'd rather fake those textures by heavy editing the trees out (or create wall textures from the plastering or anything "shot" elsewhere) because it would be a shame if this fine model was rejected - but probably it will be.

          Quite detailled and smooth animation, I like it, knowing how difficult it can be to manage. 👍
          5 I did something similar using an ancient roman villa, but I'd never published it )

                Gaieus, your prediction came true. The good thing about it is that it took only few days to be confirmed and not weeks or months like it happened for some of my past models.

                Then I textured it: the textures are tiny, really low-res, but that's more than enough for GE.

                Here the link to the re-textured model:

                  Yes, I see. If they reject it again (although this way, I think it could get through), we'll find out something to trick them.
                  😉

                  IMO it also looks better this way than with pure colours but of course, you know hwo much better it is in real life.

                    Great work, Matteo, I think the music really "sells" the animation... congrats on a job well-done. 👍

                      And the pity is that you can't render that in a renderer! 😮

                        hi!

                        what kind of line style are you using? it looks like sketchy edges, but i'm not sure which one (if any)

                        thanks!

                          and the use of animated sections seems to me really relevant to introduce the place.

                          👍 👍 , simon

                            wow, like all other comments, beautiful animation ... the music is the icing on the cake :0)
                            Long time follower, first time poster
                            I am just now figuring out section animations, I have one question though ... has anybody been able or would be able to explain how to zoom in during a section cut animation. I have a High School pool renovation project where I have an existing and a new proposed pooltank laying on top of each other and have to show where the concrete will be cut away to create the new tank. The section cut animation shows it beatifully but I would like to be able to zoom in on the diving well while it is performing the section animation. Any ideas?

                            Thanks all

                              to 'zoom in' use your Magnifying glass tool, and hold shift key while dragging your mouse, this 'activates' the field of view, change it from standard 35 to 55 or 70...

                              I do this almost automatically now without even thinking of it... I almost never use 35 for a production shot. I even prefer to work with 55-70... see more of your model at once. 😉

                                I'm late to the party on this one, but was fracking awesome !

                                Also, the music was a perfect choice.
