I fail to see how constructive criticism of a beautiful piece of work and the use of it as a learning experience for many could be construed as disingenuous.
It's a great example of how the very uniqueness of the texture can be a disadvantage.
For example, you find a fantastic wood grain or a lovely blank bit of concrete with a rust stain, if you use them too close together or too often they form a recognisable pattern. A more bland grain or clean concrete slab mightn't cause the same problem.
I'll go away now and roll my eyes quietly in private.As I said before, an excellent rendering!

Fantastic work for real! It's like a picture from the past.

Excellent job, John.
Even after it's been pointed out, the repetitive use of the same texture still doesn't jump out at me. By changing its scale and using it on different planes, I think he did a great job of doing a lot with the same texture.

While I too noticed some repetition in the stone textures, I didn't feel the need to say anything about it because I don't feel they detract in any way at all from John's consistently amazing work (which nobody here can come close to touching).
And I noticed them only because I was specifically looking for them, and the only reason I was looking for them is because John's creations are so perfect I always feel the need to try and find something a little less than perfect. Just to make myself feel a little better about my inadequacies. Perhaps that is also why others scrutinize John's work so hard.
I very rarely find anything.
Please keep the masterpieces coming, John! -
Ha! I knew it! You've been posting photographs all this time!
Incredible as always.
Each one better than the last.

i think this might be the best one yet, john.

Thank you everyone for your comments I'm humbled by them
The model is too big to be covered in a single stone texture ~ 138m visible, but could easily have been fixed as TIG rightly pointed out with a little PP. To borrow a word he often uses but is very apt here.. it's "sloppy" PP.
@ rodman100 your correct recycling was here long before the plastic bottle, I often use several textures to covey this.Whoever gave TIG's comment/opinion the thumbs down needs to take a look at themselves...childish.
Once again thanks for the comments

wow, I had to do a double take that it's not a photograph! Great job
-
Lovely piece of work as usual!
-
Sorry I should have kept my mouth shut.
It's only me being sad bastard recognising the patterns in a brilliant rendering.
-
Brightened my day nicely, thanks John. Bloomin' marvellous.

Man, If there is any film studio looking for the development of an older english village YOU ARE DA MAN!
I actually like the repeat in the texture, it looks like the stone was sourced from different quarries or available sources which could well be the case.
