Pmolsons Glaring mistake

As always Daniel you are a wisenhimer...translation-"wiseguy" for those not in Wisconsin.

I have always been lazy about re positioning the roofing texture. Now you made me think about it and I guess I will have to do that in the future. Thanks again...More bleeping work..

The tones are kept neutral on purpose because these are early design studies and color has not really been discussed so I tend to keep things pretty grey so I don't turn anybody off with boldness.

Thanks for the link Cotty.

Hornox, My work flow is pretty simple. Are you ready? Here it is...

Spend way too many hours and charge way too little. Thats it.

Please always remember my criticism, for what its worth, is always meant to be taken constructively, and never-spirited.

I didn't explain myself very well in regards to the neutral tone. I wasn't referring to the colors themselves, but rather the tones - all the colors seem to be within the same tonal range. Not enough variation with light and dark tones. Does that make sense? I was just wondering if darker shadows would give it more depth.

Most of this is nitpicky, and only noticeable to those of us who actually model and render. Most people, when they look at your work, probably respond "OH MY GOD THAT'S FRICKEN AWSOME!!!!"

I think the only way is to model a corner element that skews out from the face. Tedious to make but maybe once you've made a couple that's all you need. Otherwise draw some lines in post-pro to suggest the profiles.

I understand and actually look forward to the "knit picking" aspect of your responses.
I think I sense a slight sarcastic sense of humor mixed in to your responses and also appreciate that.
No worries.

I may do that for close ups. a re-usable component would be just the ticket.

Thanks.

these are really great.. I dont think it needs it, but I've gone to the trouble of modelling siding before, to get the corners right. model one row, copy it up a bunch of times.

*edit.. guess i should've read the last posts!

Paul, Just love seeing your home npr's. Your work is excellent. Even if the home style is not quite my cup of tea ( hard core Eichler fan ) your work is always amazing !

pmolson

Thanks Marked001!

Tuna, My philosophy on style or tastes is that I love whatever style my paying clients like.

Thanks for the comments.

I actually have a couple "modern style" or "contemporary projects" in the works right now. If they turn out ok I will post.

Er, there was problems with the render? I guess I was blinded by the rest of its brilliance.

Seriously, great render.

I was fortunate enough to be asked to do a
Video fly around of this project.

Nice! Looks great and good job completing the scene with trees and plants. What resolution did you use for SU output?

Looks great, Paul. I like those ornamental grass spike components. Where'd you find them?

majid

I cant remember where they came from, but here ya go.

If you meant the shorter 3d grass, that came from the Podium Browser.

Thanks Majid,

Thanks. I have a really poor plant library. It seems so hard to find the right ones. Only time spent in the field will help I guess.

Love your style
