this last one is better, not only because of the grass, but also because it's more vivid. very realistic!

2 hours?? anyway, it's very good looking!

i rendered a group of my ionic columns in KT.
i share it even though it's nothing special.

Just found this on the maxwell forums, not quite as involved but bloody impressive anyway.

remus, the link doesn't work because there's no H at the beginning, so here's the correct one http://hdri.cgtechniques.com/~sponza/files/

i don't know if i'll manage to make it a second time, but if i find the time i will try.

p.s.: thank you for your tuorials about the TIN tube, it's very helpful!

i hope this is the right place to post this.

this is my first attempt to model a ionic column. the tutorial by Gaieus helped me in modeling the flutes, whereas for the tapering i just scaled down the top a bit.

below is a quick render with podium.

this model @ the 3DWarehouse.

when i click on "scene 1" it doesn't work.

someone could tell me how i can use scenes during a sketchyphysics animation

i want to ask one thing about the UI dialog: it opens every time i start up sketchup; is it possible to avoid this?

at last...
