NPR Housing development

I really love this kind of presentation. Is this all photoshop+fotosketcher?
Whats your workflow?

[Macker]

Yeah it's all photoshop & fotosketcher, I've attached the original export. Though to achieve the effect I do export a few other passes such as one for sketchy lines, one for material ID's in photoshop and so on.

The thinking behind doing it this way rather than in 3DS max & VRay is that it feels more "loose" and not necessarily fully designed which can often be to your favour when presenting to a planning committee, or a client. It gives the impression that things are still subject to change and that nothing is fixed; turning up to a meeting with full on photoreal images can sometimes work against you in that the client could end up thinking "oh sh*t, that's not what I wanted at all!".

Beatiful work:

Do you want to sharing the settings of photosketcher?

Thanks in advanced

I would, but there's nothing special about my settings; I use a combination of the Oil Pastel preset, and the Watercolour preset blended together in photoshop. One (hopefully) last image to add;

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I suppose seeing as I couldn't really offer anything in the way of fotosketcher settings, here's what the image looked like with all the photoshop post production just before I ran it through fotosketcher...

And for comparison, the original sketchup export;

Should probably mention that all these images are 3500px wide, I've had to scale them down because the forum was rejecting them.
