Lyon in 1700
-
Yes I agree but it's really difficult to do !!
I know use photoshop, but I'm not a painter -
Pothier...nice renders, and splendid model!
-
I don't completly agree with the dirt part.
If you are making a reconstruction, pretending you are in those days, then the buildings should be brand new! Why to give them that wasted, dirty and old look?Maybe some stains at ground level?
BTW, great model!

Some news pictures

Not sure if you're looking for feedback...but here goes anyway
I think your final image shows the level of detail you have put into the model which has to be commended.
But I agree with Majid, the textures need a bit more realism to be convincing.
-
Thank's for your feedback Bocomofo.
I know for my textures and I agree with that.
Actually, I'm modifing some textures, but it's not my priority for the moment.
For the post pro, I will do that in photoshop with brush, but it's not simple... I will see that
(sorry for my english...) -
A new version for my textures. It's not perfect but it's better no ? I don't use photoshop for the moment, just kerkythea
I need your feedback
-
I've changed my textures and the render method.
I like the style old photo.

Hi Fabrice de lyon
it is indeed better than the first renders... but not perfect yet, no.
Currently, lots of those windows would have rolling shutters... Wouldn't the houses have had regular shutters back in 1700?
You could put them just a little bit crooked here, straight there... put some curtains behind the windows will add some liveliness as well... carts and stuff in the street as well. Also the window frames seem a bit thick. Furthermore, you could add some cast-iron fenced balconies to add interest...
Oh, and some way of night time lighting? I think gas lanterns are post-1700, aren't they? But they must've had something...
Then there's the matter of atmosphere... I don't really get the feeling that those houses are in the sunny town of Lyons... more like Brussels... -
Thank you for your comments Pyroluna.
But what you are talking would be possible for a city a century later or at Versailles.
The shutters were inside houses, and virtually invisible given the poor quality of the windows.
There were no balconies, the windows could be opened only in small portions. With the manufacture of glass larger than the balconies will appear and that the shutters will be outside.
I could put things in the street, but it is not my priority as I model an entire city. I'll do it later.
Lighting at night had just set up in Lyon, it was soldiers who posed the evening lanterns on the curbs of some street ...
To put more life, I opened some shops, you'll see in my upcoming reviews.
For light, the city was deemed very dark and sad because the buildings were very high for the time, and very narrow streets.
Sorry, my english is horrible, so it's a google traduction... -
of course I'm no historian
whow entire city... that's a lot! good luck with it! I want to see your shops
good luck on your english too, haha google translate does quite an ok job. your text is understandable, despite some minor errors -
A street, not finished.
-
Very nice, Fabrice.
Looking forward to seeing the colored version.
Bonne jounee!

New image of this street, this time with shops and open windows to give a little more life ! The textures will be next.
Should I add people, they are blurred by imagining moving story to simplify things a bit on the question of clothes. But that requires me to find pictures of people still dressed the way late 17th ... Not easy.
If anyone has an idea? Recover persons in the images of a film ?
Sorry for my english...

An other street.
