      No paintings were found but some evidence of plastering. As this project must be as minimalist as possible (with a reconstruction, you always have to go for the "simplest possible" solution to avoid being influenced by your imagination and romantic sentiments), this is how "archaeologically" it can be done.

      Then, is I wish, I can add frescos when I export it into a game engine πŸ˜„

          Well, that was just an example. πŸ˜„

          We have beautiful frescos in the Roman cemetery though.

            Well... I was refering to which game engine πŸ˜†

            Textures for roman paintings are as we say in spain "a headache". It's problematic to find good ones. Anyway I want to make some of the in the future (too much things for the future... when I have time) for my model of the roman theatre.

              Yes, I know what you meant with the game engine - and that's what I also meant; if I want to use the model for something "more liberal" than this archaeological reconstruction, I am free to do it - "say" in a game engine.

              Our paintings here are all Christian (many Biblical scenes and such) but they would still need some photoshopping πŸ˜„

                Hi everyone,

                Here is a comparison between my work and L.VII.C.'s Vespasian temple.
                I did not put the capitals on this image because they are not completed.

                What do you think ? πŸ˜’

                  Gaieus, amazing render. As I see you avoid defects with lighting in it.
                  I've finished rendering of my previous model - roman Pantheon. I took into account latest advices to improve render quality. Also I've added the rays as you can see.

                  [flash=500,400:3i0lgp5s]http://www.you3dview.com/viewer/viewer.swf?xml=http://www.you3dview.com/flvideo/319/viewer.xml[/flash:3i0lgp5s]

                  Z-Akh69, as for me the models are both intersting and well done. Your model is a little bit more detailed. But we have to take into account than the temple which made by L.VII.C. is only the part of the great and beautiful ensemble, so it's normally that it is less detailed.

                    Yes, I know. I modeled a maximum of detail because I want to import the model into Zbrush for transform reliefs in normal map ! πŸ˜‰

                    Congratulations for the render, the pantheon is an beautiful building. I've already visited three times and I'm always fascinated.

                      Yes, Z-Akh, really nicely detailed model (although of course, I would not throw L.VII.C's away either πŸ˜„ )

                      Danik:
                      Textures, textures and textures. Beside a good model (which this Pantheon is indeed), 70-80% of a good render depends on textures.
                      (I have also seen your Nerva forum render - the same there. Some of the textures are very repetitive and need some care).

                      This Pantheon is very cool. Good idea NOT to place the camera completely into the middle (as little fantasy as I have, I would have πŸ˜’ ). Some interior lights and some very subtle soft shadow would liven it up a bit I think

                      (Hope you don't mind the critiques - you know that I love these panoramas and renders - and only want to see them even better)
                      πŸ˜‰

                        L.VII.C's temple is nice too but i'm very maniac so i want to build the same temple with real proportions. πŸ˜‰
                        With a render, his model is more beautiful than mine because the entablure is short. Mine is real but too massive.

                          Thanks Gaieus πŸ˜„

                          Actually these are my old models when I haven't enough good textures, now I'm planning to re-texture them, so in future you'll have the opportunity to see the changes.

                            Beautiful render Danik !

                            Maybe you can place few 2D character in the scene. How many time for the renders ?

                              Two more suggestions, Danik:

                              I don't know if the proportions of those stone slabs covering the fora are correct but they seem to be enormous to me.
                              Also, could you raise the camera height just a little bit? I know that these fora are grand but with a little bit of added height, it would be more "comfortable" to view them. Now they are too depressingly big (which they used to be, surely so maybe I am not right).

                              And of course, I have already seen them (as I am subscribed to your "channel" or what and receive email notifications)
                              πŸ˜‰

                                  Z-Akh69, each of these renders take about 3-4 hours

                                    It's very sad that buildings so beautiful as this one have disappeared! Thank you for putting the characters to get an idea of the scale. πŸ‘

                                      Here are some new images of my work.
                                      What do you think about these proportions in general ? The columns are they too high ? πŸŽ‰

                                          Bump Mapping could improve your renders a lot. You can build them from your existing textures.

                                            Small tip... I don't know which render app. you're using (looks like KT, but could be Twilight Render, Podium or another...? ), nonetheless - if you place a big plane under the building you want to render, then the light will bounce and make your render look better... πŸ˜‰
