Hey guys, here is a SU 6 version for y'all unconverted users.

I love this model, I like this kind of picture!
I think one thing that I could not do is hide the shadows of the pillars, I think it would make a more accurate picture like in the original one.

excellent. i wanted to add people but i didnt think it would look good...but it looks great well done. arch viz style escher haha you just need to balance the blacks and you got a killer image

the model is almost parallel projection (in perspective view) so I reckon if you distort the model you can (almost) match the perspective of the original image. tricky though, I gave up very quickly!

basic clay approach. . . and from all us--the great unwashed still using version 6-- Thanks Pete.

Piranesi quick one.

Well its obvious that I don't really like Eschers drawings. So I tried to turn it to a mess. I also tested the SU obj export to blender on this more complicated model. Everything works fine. Imported again to SU as 3ds and exported two 2d SU raw (deferent lighting, transparent background), PPed in photoshop.

Looks like Escher meets Dr. Suess. Maybe you should enter it in the Speed Model Challenge!

Thanks, but here's another one. We need some perspective view but you know the problem. So here's an attempt. Rendered with podium.

Great work here sid.
When we are in front of a distorted geometry, when we are in front of a simple cube, when we are in front of a paradox, then we all produce interesting scenes. When we have to deal with a customer... then we should remember what elements turn a simple scene to art. We should be in the mood for this.

Thanks Michalis. Your comment is spot on.
