@Rich-O-Brien Rich! You know what's funny is the brick is a default brick material from SU, I ran it through D5's AI material whiz bang machine.

@alvis Thanks Mike, Bryan and Alvis. Here's some finals with people. [image: 1730056215708-destin-couple-resized.jpg] [image: 1730056226655-destin-outdoor-kitchen-1-resized.jpg] [image: 1730056234251-destin-outdoor-kitchen-2-resized.jpg]

Excellent as always!

@Rich-O-Brien This one is from "Central's Book of Homes" from Central Lumber Company which I got from Internet Archive which is still down. I saved five of them in PDF form before Internet Archive ran into trouble.

@Rich-O-Brien Reminds me of the NPR renders of a member from some time ago. They were special too. These renders always make me smile.

Wow! Top notch!

Nice! Well done.

Lovely work!

Here's a bunch of variations.

@Bryan-K Thanks Bryan. I post this stuff at the D5 "community" forum and barely get any likes and the occasional "suggestions" from the peanut gallery.

@Gus-R Rich is correct, fantastic model, and renders.

@Rich-O-Brien 18K is how it shows in the software. Comes out to be over 15K. Yeah, D5's displacement isn't very good. I don't think it's actual displacement. It gets distorted when viewed along the sides of an object. Sometimes I just turn it off in the material.

I can only agree, you are on a proper roll with this series, not cheese and ham either. Cap doffed.

@Rich-O-Brien If I export as an obj it gets rid of the triangulation. Then it become a matter of "active faces" and all the rest on Blender. It's a lot easier on Sketchup.

Well done! The BW looks amazing!

@Gus-R The progression is great, fantastic. As fart as the car goes, when motor mechanics think they have top be paid on parity with neuro surgeons, the telephone numbers add up. A bit like the insurance scam, sorry, industry and lawyers - you know where the profit is.

Well done! Top notch!

Top notch!

@Gus-R In school, we used to do similar with cut up baked bean tins and styrene (I think) washers. Did the job well enough. The washers are pretty durable and come in lots of sizes.

Superb mate! I dont know exactly when you last used TM but it is now free and the interface has completely changed and much easier to navigate
