I really like your camera work though the whites are REALLY white and tending to burn out much of the image!

Amazing.

I get you about a tilt shift camera, I use it in every architectural sceene, but I wanted to emphasise the perspective in this view, so I used normal camera, 20mm lens. There is a texture in every single material in the scene, including bump map, but it is hard to see, because I reduced the pic from its original size 4961x2791 px ( A3 format on 300 dpi), there will be some closeups, so the texture is bit more visible. Thanks for the comments, cheers

Yes,I can see. Certainly this displacement gives that piece of "justice" to the job!

@unknownuser said: Where is the image? I don't see anything! There must have been some images here. Maybe Andrija took them down.

In the new office is that a little refrigerator on the left side of the pic? Having a beer fridge so close to one's desk is a great idea! I have a dual monitor setup at home but my monitors are much smaller. I position them so one is directly in front of me and the other is next to it on the right side. This allows me to treat one as my primary modelling monitor and I keep things like the materials browser panel open on the second. Andrija don't you find working awkward when your modelling window is off to the side like that? I'd get a sore neck - but that beer fridge might make up for any discomfort. Regards, Ross

Just spotted this work by Andrija. Wow! Thabks to posting its excellent Mike

@unknownuser said: I'd like to get some of that action Pad = Apartment. Yes the stairs would not pass code with no handrails. [image: avatar15.gif] Aha, Pad = Apartement ha ha, I didn't know you call it that way. Well thank you, although it is not an apartement, it is a 3 storey house, but who cares :egrin: it is not finished yet (you can se naked bulbs, no pictures on the wally etc... someday.... It is great that this is my house, so I don't have any ispections coming over to check the handrails, ha ha ha @jenujacob said: ok... are u sure this is not a Vray render with HDRI lighting???? :esurp: LOL.. i only raise my doubts becoz aposaric is involoved! ha ha, thanks, but I am not that good @daniel said: I can see Beverly has ONE flaw - she's in front of the TV! yes, that is stupid position, but who cares @unknownuser said: Actually Daniel, Beverly is very smart. She positioned herself BETWEEN Andrija and the TV. yes, smart creatures, these modern motorbikes... @unknownuser said: Just like my wife does ha ha ha @mike lucey said: Andrija, Will the 'pad' stay as neat and tidy without your human girlfriend? Mike ha ha Mike, you are calling it neat? there is 400 pounds bike parked in the middle of the room, I am afraid that it is far from neat and tidy, and my last girlfriend wasn't very enthusiastic about cleaning up, so there are not many changes on that field of my life... ha ha @paul russam said: Introducing the New Microsoft Xbox360 controller for MotoGP 2007, the Xcooter360 The Xcooter360 features many unique features not found in other controllers: Completely wireless No batteries, comes with its own power source Available in 14 unique colours Realistic corner leaning with optional Xstand360(Copyright Microsoft) retracted. - Please note controller does not right itself automatically and may require some user input.

@schreiberbike said: Wowzers. I keep looking over at my little inkjet printer and imagining such a project coming out of it. I looked at it and had a wild idea. The corner blocks look like the teeth of a zipper. Next time you do one of these , maybe you could play that up with a zipper pull and teeth on the fold down. J ha ha, yes that would be a great Idea with the zipper, but as I have written before, this "loose end" style is not my idea, a designer from our office thought of that;-) I did the modeling and rendering and composing/post processing part. I think it would take you 20 sets of toner to print this thing out, and then it would be all blown away with the first wind;-) thanks for the comment

@unknownuser said: @andrija posarić said: Ok, this is when I get borred of architecture, I model and render stupid things, for fun;-) I only wish my "stupid things" looked that good. Great stuff. Keep 'em comin'. ha ha, i will post more;-) thanks

@solo said: Thats an awesome model, and great rendering. I use vray and Max9 for site ads and brochures but find the time setting up all textures cumbersome, do you have any advise? Have you tried vray for SU yet. thanks for the comment;-) Well, there are few ways of exporting your model with textures directly to max. (uff, I wrote a couple of tutorials couple of years ago on the old forum, but they are deleted, so here me go again, but short version;-))) Ok step one, model your model, and texture it in SU. then click/ export / single object (if you use SU 6, or "by geometry" if you use SU 5 (recommended for export is SU 5)) materials; export texture maps / preserving texture coordinates (all of your geometry is smooth in max) if you export "velding vertices", than you will have faceted faces in max, and you don't want that;-))) units MUST be set on meters.... click EXPORT Ok, when in max Import your model, click materials (M), then choose pick tool, and you will get a subdivided material box. (for example three materials), go one by one, click; Default/ chosse vray mtl, and open ; DIFUSE, and click on the texture taht should carry the same name as your material, and click (show material, that little blue rubic cube;-))) you shoul be able to see your SU material, which have the ability to gain your VRAY attributes and that is it, enjoy;-)) I hope this helped you a bit, if you don't understand, send me a PM, an I will be more than happy to help you;-) cheers

I like the 'lightness' to the render, well done Andrija. Mike

@unknownuser said: Wow. I am going to have fun watching you have fun :esurp: I am so behind the curve in rendering it is unreal. Great work. Thanks, I am not sure how often I will post progress, because this is a spare time fun;-) @robmoors said: Great renders, care to share the texture for the wood, it's simply amazing! thanks, you have PM @solo said: Beautiful! You are a very talented artist, I take much inspiration from your work. I will be watching this space for updates... thanks for sharing. ha ha, it is nice to hear that I inspire someone, I found my inspiration for this house, here, in Tadao Ando thread :egrin: thanks

BRUTALNO!!!! :esurp:

Hi All. I'm pretty new here, just started frequenting the old ruby forum a few months ago. I haven't been using Sketchup that long, but I really love it. So someone please give me some deeper background. Judging by the reaction, it seems like there is much more to this than just Google deciding to move the forum over to their standard product. It's probably a long story, but if someone's up to telling it, I'm up to reading about it. CB.

Thank you for your coments folks, I appreciate it a lot kwistenbiebel , you can find these chairs here: http://www.ambientedirect.com/en/eur/design_aarnio_bubble_en.php http://www.eero-aarnio.com/10/Where_to_buy.htm The price is neat 3.000,00 British Pounds, not very cheap, but then again, not everybody has one at home either Cheers

yes, i browsed the forum a bit, and it is nice, and there is lot of nice work around, so I will have something to look at for a while:-) Cheers
