Pibuz Gallery (very wip: expect loooong update times)

This for me is a chance to challenge myself in improving my modeling and rendering skills by sharing some of my works (all done using Sketchy and Indigo Renderer) here in the forums. Many of the images that will follow are actually a "closed topic", and I strongly doubt I'd have guts enough to revisit them following your smart tips to correct the many errors you'll spot.. For sure I think I will learn for the next occasions! So I thank you all for your patience and time in advance and I really really hope you enjoy the renders. I owe so much to this forums...

..sad story for this one: a kitchen renovation for a couple of friends just married. The project was done, but the plasterboard worker (don't know how he is called out of Italy) got everything wrong. The two friends, once saw the result, asked to remove all and to leave the kitchen like it is: plain square white box......... Plasterboard worker fired, end of the story.

This is a visualization for a worksite public notice they're currently realizing (project not mine). The model is very very detailed and the rendering times were HUUUUGE due to render size (more than 10.000 pixels wide) and complexity (indoor and outdoor lighting and glasses).

![..another "artistic" shot of the same model. This one wasn't committed by the client. Changed the mood using a different EXR map.](/uploads/imported_attachments/mX3K_im1363101698_small.jpg "..another "artistic" shot of the same model. This one wasn't committed by the client.

VERY VERY poor base model, tight deadlines and loads of photoshop for this idraulic work here in Italy. I'm not good as Davidh, but the clients seemed not to care too much :)

This image is about a library extension. Darn long work on the books my friends..

The clients rarely do, here in Italy, that's why a renderer's job is so difficult..

Very nice images, nice job!

pibuz

The clients seemed no to care too much about the fact that I'n not as good as Davidh
But they wanted a good image, so I had to do a little improvisation (I'm no EXPERT about photoshop), which turned out to be gooed enough for them.

Hi Philippo ,

Such an amazing work you're showing us.
Very beautiful .
And so nice to see again what a wonderful render engine (Sk)Indigo is.
So powerful and easy to use...I always took the render time as a minor pain to what the superb quality is like.
And in the end, even speed is fine for exteriors .

I haven't been using Sketchup for months now (I always used SU with Indigo and Vray), mostly because I have a wee cute baby boy now, and am taking a break from the work jungle .

So, time to update the thread a little! These are some recent and less recent works from me!

some other ones: all the following images relate to the same renovation project.

This is the exterior day shot of a house renovation project made by a colleague. The building is a detached house which is being expanded to guest three semidetached units. The facade materials indicate the different units.
