Hi Allan,

I like this more than the building you just posted--think the color strokes work well. I prefer the way the sky is faded in contrast. I wonder what would happen with some color, texture or faded paper background? The white is not very "organic" or whatever. Great composition.

Thanks Peter, anything is possible I'm just having fun trying out different style...I think I will give it a try and see how it looks...

I was just reminded of some the FLW styles and also drawings that had colored paper. You would know the styles yourself, of course. Enjoying your book. It has helped a great deal already! Thanks, Peter

incredible modeling.

and i feel i have to thank you for showing us your technique workflow a few posts back.
...i have tried it myself and love the simplicity and speed of it. (although i'm still learning)

Peter, there's a few of those FLW drawings in the web and I plan on copying the style with colored paper, I'm very happy that your enjoying my tutorial.

John, I'm happy that you like my workflow and use it for your projects, yes it's very simple but very effective for real projects...

I absolutely love it!!!
I just spat out 6 more renders in ~1.5hours

mind you I tried a different brush this time, I wish I could say it was on purpose (just couldnt remember the last settings).. and it came out as a much more "watercolory" feel... I'm coining that term btw

I'm looking fotrward to more of your posts!
by-the-by if you're interested - here are those renders:

Sorry where are the posts about the technic ?

That's is great John keep doing it and surprise us with your renders...

Thanks Richard, when I hear that word " Master " I feel like I have powers or something but seriously I just like doing it, honestly I don't like this render , I did all sort of techniques just to make it work and you liked it...maybe my tastes if off this days

Pilou, I think John is referring to my tutorial? If your interested it's at the SketchUp Books section (shameless plug sorry)

Thank you everyone,
