After design Crit
-
It's gorgeous... Perhaps, instead of the slat columns at the carport, a wall of vertical planks like on the left, that runs from front of the carport to rear.

Actually I did try that mate (great minds thinking alike!) - but the actual height of both varying stuffed it!
I thought it was really going to work!

Great picture. I don't quite understand the right side. Looking into some rooms? It feels like I am seeing too much of secondary spaces? Reminds a little me of Usonian homes otherwise. Nice organisation.
It might be hard to get the plywood to look that great--crisp, flat, and bold lines. Also what will the bottom edge there look like? Might actual boards (over plywood) be used instead?

Thanks mate, the right side is the secondary (smaller home), the carport there to expose this frontage rather than to obscure it behind it's own garage! The entry is via the gap between the carport and garage.
Mate the plywood is a fairly common product here it shiplaps at the ends - rather cool with deep grooves. Bottom edge is exposed and runs about 3/4" below the sofit.

There is a roof on the right part or it's a land were it's never raining?

Mate, some models (different style) will have a roof, this design only has a pergola!

Lovely image, Richard.

Hey cobber, how's things? Saw this on your FB page late last night but thought I'd have a look at a larger screen on the computer today to get a real idea what is happening.
Have you thought about loading the model into Sketchfab and embedding it here to let us wander around it a bit? I'd like to get an idea of whats going on inside and out before jumping in...
Always nice and clean images, mate.

You forget that I'm bloody lazy! No more than needed!

Some baked textures would make it sing in Sketchfab
-
I'm not sure there is a proper renderer that bakes textures yet is there?
Here is a quick mock up Post Pro!
-
Blender will bake textures, ao, normals, full render. Basically anything.

Yeah but no one want to learn blender just to do that!!

[mod=:103sfoc2]Removed SketchFab embed as it caused load time to increase for page[/mod:103sfoc2]
But when the end result i this then the time spent is worth it
-
I have to admit that I never really understood the utility of those baked textures. In that sketchfab model the shadows seem all wrong and way too soft. I mean it's like the light is coming from any point and the result is fake and cartoon-like at best.
A raw Sketchup model with shadows is 100% better than that IMO.Very nice work Richard btw.

Really nice.

Yeah I'm never sold much on walkable or navigable models mate. Buyers aren't impressed by them, they just click in to watch it move get lost and give up.
Not if you consider the other option is to spend some money on good images. There is a saying they use in advertising, if you haven't got good images - don't use images. Same I think with these!
-
Ignore me as I'm testing the affect of page load times with these 3D viewers

Great B&W image Richard. I like the plants too.
